Empero Nutsedge Killer (1.33 oz) by Atticus - Halosulfuron-Methyl 75% Turf Herbicide for Established Lawns, Ornamental Turfgrass, & Landscape Areas

Empero Nutsedge Control TRUSTED PERFORMER: Empero contains 75% halosulfuron-methyl, the active ingredient professionals trust most for control of tough nutsedge. TOTAL NUTSEDGE TAKEDOWN: Empero travels down to the root system tubers for complete top-to-bottom weed kill. USE ON NEARLY ANY LAWN: Empero is gentle to most any established warm- or cool-season turf – including bluegrass, fescue, Bermudagrass, zoysia, and more – so you can apply with confidence. SIMPLE MEASURE AND MIX: Add 1 level scoop Empero and 2 teaspoons surfactant per gallon of water. Empero's rapid dissolving granules make fast work of thorough mixing. ENJOY YOUR OUTDOOR SPACE – QUICKLY: Pets and people are clear to re-enter the treated area once the spray solution has dried. READY FOR UNPREDICATABLE WEATHER: Don't let a sudden shower wash away your treatment. Empero sets quickly and is ready for rain after 4 hours.

3 Simple Steps to Total Nutsedge Takedown: 1. Identify Nutsedge: Locate nutsedge or Kyllinga breakouts in lawns or woody landscape areas. Determine amount of solution needed (each gallon will treat 1,000 sq ft). 2. Mix with Water & Surfactant: Fill sprayer with needed amount of water. Add 1 scoop of Empero per gallon of water. Add 2 tsp surfactant per gallon of water. Mix or shake until completely dissolved. 3. Spray Target Weeds: Ensure thorough coverage of weeds (wet the entire leaf surface). For best results, apply to nutsedge in the 3-8 leaf growth stage.

Empero travels down to the root system tubers for complete top-to-bottom weed kill, stopping nutsedge spread. Each nutsedge tuber can produce as many as 1900 new plants per year, so Dr. Rob "G11" Golembiewski explains why plucking nutsedge by hand is the worst thing you can do. He also shares a top tip to increase herbicide effectiveness.

What you need to know: - Application rate for sedge control in turfgrass is 0.9 grams (one level scoop) per 1,000 sq ft. Mix 0.9 grams of Empero with 1-2 gallons of water and 2 teaspoons nonionic surfactant. - The mixture is sprayed over 1,000 sq ft regardless of water volume, so the concentration is the same whether mixed with one or two gallons. - Surfactants improve coverage, penetration, and efficacy of the product, resulting in more effective control. - Empero is a selective herbicide formulated to target yellow and purple nutsedge as well as green Kyllinga without negatively impacting established turfgrass species. Never apply to newly seeded or stressed lawns. - Apply when weeds are actively growing and not stressed from heat or drought. If the soil is dry, water the night before application. Repeat applications may be needed for larger weeds and green Kyllinga. Allow several weeks for complete weed kill.
