Spyder Herbicide (3 lbs.) SFM 75 - Controls Grasses and Broad-Leaf Weeds

Spyder is a versatile herbicide that can be used for various applications. It is available in the form of dispersible granules that are mixed with water and applied as a spray. This herbicide is effective in controlling a wide range of annual and perennial grasses and broadleaf weeds on non-cropland areas, such as crabgrass, dog fennel, fescue, goldenrod, horseweed, ragweed, and sweet clover.

The herbicide can be applied before or after the emergence of weeds, but for best results, it should be applied before or during the early stages of weed growth. Spyder is recommended for commercial reforestation areas where Jack pine, loblolly pine, red pine, slash pine, and Virginia pine are being established. However, extreme care must be taken to prevent drift or runoff to homesteads, agricultural land, or any body of water. It is not recommended for use on poorly drained or marshy sites, as it may result in damage to Douglas fir, Noble fir, and Ponderosa pine.

The dispersible granules of Spyder are designed for both pre-emergent and post-emergent weed control. The herbicide is absorbed by both the roots and the foliage of the plant, rapidly inhibiting its growth. Spyder is effective in controlling both broadleaf and grassy weeds, and it can also be used for conifer and hardwood site preparation.

One of the advantages of Spyder is that it requires only a few ounces of the product per application, rather than pounds or gallons like other herbicides. This makes it a more economical and environmentally friendly option.

Spyder can be used as part of an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategy, which includes chemical weed mowing and the suppression of grass seed heads. This approach helps to reduce the overall reliance on herbicides while still maintaining effective weed control.

In summary, Spyder is a versatile herbicide that can be used for a variety of applications, including bare-ground treatments, selective weeding on roadsides and in other industrial turf areas, and in forestry situations. Its dispersible granule formulation and targeted application rates make it an efficient and environmentally conscious choice for weed control.
