Tips for use
Restraints
Do not spray on stressed plants (e.g., those affected by cold, drought, poor nutrition, disease, or previous herbicide use) as control may be less effective.
Ensure thorough coverage of leaves and stems until runoff for high-volume applications.
Avoid spraying if rain is expected within one hour.
Legumes and broadleaf plants will be severely damaged during spraying.
Mixing Instructions
Mixing with Water:
Fill the spray tank halfway with water.
Add the required amount of Starane Advanced.
Fill the tank with water and keep agitating to mix well.
Mixing with Diesel:
Fill the tank halfway with diesel.
Add the required amount of Starane Advanced.
Fill the rest of the tank with diesel and agitate to mix.
Tank Mixtures:
Add chemicals in this order: dry formulations → suspension concentrates → water-soluble salts → emulsifiable concentrates (like Starane Advanced).
Add spraying oils and surfactants last.
Oils and Surfactants

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.
