How to use

As good practice, we recommend wearing waterproof gloves and gardening footwear.

1. Press and hold the tab on the top of the sprayer, twist nozzle ¼ turn to ‘ON’/Spray position.
2. Hold the sprayer approx. 50 cm away from the target weed and spray to lightly wet the weeds, avoiding run-off.
3. Rotate the nozzle back to ‘OFF’/‘STOP’ position after use.

Treat established perennial weeds at the start of flowering to give best results. Spray nettles/ground elder when new leaves have unfolded fully in late spring.

Weeds may show first effects from a few days up to 4 weeks, depending on the weather and type of weed. Repeat application if necessary, should new growth appear.

Keep children and pets away from treated areas until spray has dried.
