Instructions for use

When to use

SBK Brushwood Killer controls brambles, nettles, dock, other tough weeds, woody weeds and hardwood samplings in grassland and non-crop areas. Do not use on desired plants.

Apply from May to October (June to August for woody weeds) when soil is moist and weeds are actively growing. For tree stumps the best time for treatment is Autumn or Winter, avoiding April, May or June when the sap is rising. A repeat treatment may be applied after six weeks. Apply a maximum of two treatments per season.

Allow at least six weeks between application and replanting.

Where to use

Do not apply during drought or in freezing conditions, when rain is imminent or the grass is wet. Do not apply in windy weather. Direct spray away from water. Avoid drift onto broadleaved plants outside the target area. Keep off cultivated plants. May cause damage to lawns and other fine turf. 

Keep grazing animals out of treated areas until foliage of any poisonous weeds like Ragwort have died down and become unpalatable.

Children and pets can be allowed on treated areas after the spray has died.

How to use

Shake well before use. Hold the bottle upright, loosen cap and gently squeeze the bottle to fill the dose chamber to the required level. Remove cap and empty contents into water in the watering can or sprayer, mixing thoroughly. Repeat as required.

Nettles, Brambles and Tough Weeds: By watering can with fine rose: mix 30ml in 6 litres of water and apply evenly over 10 square metres; or by sprayer: mix 30ml in 1.5 litres of water and apply evenly over 10 square metres.

Adjust sprayer nozzle to a coarse setting to avoid production of a fine spray that can drift onto neighbouring plants.

Woody weeds and hardwood saplings: Mix 30ml in 1.5 litres of water and apply evenly by sprayer covering leaves, branches and stems.

Tree stumps: By painting; mix equal volumes of product and water, or by sprayer; add 200ml of product to 300ml of water. Paint or spray all surfaces of cut stumps and bark down to soil level.

Wash out equipment thoroughly after use.
