SureFire Multi Turf Herbicide 500mL

Product Description

MULTI TURF Herbicide is a 500 mL pack of Surefire Multi Turf, a turf herbicide with 300 g/L MCPA (as the potassium salt), 20 g/L clopyralid (as the potassium salt) and 15 g/L diflufenican (Groups 4 and 12, APVMA 94199). The label lists certain broadleaf weeds in turf, including white clover, plantain, capeweed, cat’s ear, bindii (jo-jo), cudweed and creeping oxalis, at 5 L per hectare in 200 to 500 L of water (about 50 mL per 100 m²). Apply to actively growing weeds. Complete weed death may take up to 6 weeks.

Check your grass first. The label says transient discolouration may occur on kikuyu, carpet grass and Queensland blue couch, and that some buffalo varieties (for example ST85) can show stronger effects, so test a small area first. Do not use it on bent grass or winter grass golf and bowling greens. Do not apply if turf or weeds are under stress or frost is imminent, or if rain is expected within 4 hours.

It can harm plants you want to keep. The label says spray drift may injure herbaceous plants, vegetables, fruit crops, vines, ornamentals and trees. Do not apply under conditions that may cause drift onto nearby susceptible plants, crops or pastures. Do not use clippings as mulch around other plants or for composting. Overseeding treated areas within 3 months may inhibit establishment of the new grass. Avoid mowing for 3 to 4 days before and after treatment.

Grazing and clippings. Do not graze treated turf or feed turf clippings from treated areas to poultry or livestock.

How to use it. Shake the container, keep the mix agitated and mix only what you need for the day. The label does not recommend tank mixing with other products. See the Application Rates tab, our herbicide mixing guide and the full label before mixing.

Before you buy. The label says it is dangerous to fish and other aquatic life, so do not contaminate streams, rivers or watercourses. It is harmful if swallowed, will damage the eyes and will irritate skin. The label asks for cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrist, a washable hat, elbow-length PVC gloves and goggles. If poisoning occurs, contact a doctor or the Poisons Information Centre on 13 11 26.

Tips for use

Restraints

Do not spray on stressed turf such as grass affected by cold, drought, poor nutrition, disease or recent herbicide use.
Apply only when weeds are actively growing.
Avoid overlapping sprayed areas to prevent excessive application.
Do not apply if rain is expected within several hours.
Do not use on bentgrass greens or winter grass putting surfaces.
Test a small area before treating large areas of buffalo turf due to varietal sensitivity.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a selective and a non-selective herbicide?

A selective herbicide kills target weeds while leaving desirable plants unharmed - for example, a lawn-safe product that removes bindii and clover from buffalo or couch without damaging the turf. A non-selective herbicide such as glyphosate kills almost any green plant it contacts, so it is used for driveways, fence lines, garden-bed prep and total vegetation control, never on lawns.

What is a pre-emergent herbicide and when do I apply it?

A pre-emergent creates a barrier in the top layer of soil that stops weed seeds from establishing as they germinate. It does not control weeds that are already growing. Apply it before the target weed germinates - late summer to early autumn for winter grass, and early spring for summer grasses like crabgrass and crowsfoot - then water it in.

Will herbicide damage my lawn?

Only if you use the wrong type. Non-selective herbicides (glyphosate) will kill or badly damage turf. Selective lawn herbicides are formulated to be safe on common Australian turf at label rates, but tolerance varies by grass - buffalo is the most sensitive - so always check the label lists your turf type before spraying.
