Top tips for Grazon® Pro:
- Peel open the label and read in fill before use.
- Use only through a knapsack or other equipment with a hand-held lance.
- The rate of application is 60 ml in 10 litres of water.
- Target weeds when they are at the right size: Actively growing with healthy leaves and pre-flowering is best. If you have topped the weeds first then wait for sufficient weed regrowth before spraying.
- Ensure your spraying equipment is properly maintained, clean and free of dirt with the nozzle(s) able to deliver a consistent and even spray. Change the nozzle(s) if needed. You can watch our series on sprayer maintenance here.
- Wear suitable protective clothing when handling and measuring the concentrate. A face shield, gloves, coveralls and rubber boots are essential. The face shield may be removed when spraying the dilute spray mixture.
- Spray until weed leaves are thoroughly wet, but stop before the spray runs off the leaves.
- Do not be tempted to spray any ragwort present with Grazon Pro as it will not control it but may make it palatable to horses and stock. This could result in a significantly increased grazing interval whist the ragwort fully recovers.
- Grazon Pro is LERAP Category B, so spray must not fall within 1 metre of the top of the bank of a flowing or static water body. Spray must be aimed away from the water.
- Keep other people and pets out of treated areas for at least 2 hours until spray has dried on the leaf.
- When spraying is finished, clean out the tank, spray lines and nozzle, making sure the washings go on a treated area. If the Grazon Pro container is empty, rinse thoroughly three times with clean water and dispose of the rinsings on the treated area.
Best use advice for spot treatment with Grazon® Pro
- Grazon Pro is a professional use product, therefore ensure all knapsack operators have necessary PA1 and PA6 qualifications.
- Service and maintain knapsack sprayers regularly and calibrate before use.
- Fit an appropriately sized nozzle to deliver a medium to fine spray.
- Users should wear appropriate PPE when mixing and applying Grazon Pro: face shield, gloves, coveralls and rubber boots.
- Apply at the rate stated on the label – for Grazon Pro this is 60 ml in 10 L water.
- Apply chemical to dry foliage, avoid applications to disease or pest ridden targets as this will affect the efficacy of the spray.
- Spray to thoroughly wet the foliage of the target weed, but avoid application to the point of run-off.
- Do not be tempted to spray any ragwort present with Grazon Pro as it will not control it but may make it palatable to horses and stock. This could result in a significantly increased grazing interval whist the ragwort fully recovers.
