What Customers Are Saying
The Scotts WeedEx Prevent with Halts product appears to be an effective pre-emergent for controlling crabgrass and other weeds in lawns. Many customers reported it successfully prevented weed growth, leading to a healthier, greener lawn. The product was easy to apply, and worked well when applied in early spring and fall. However, some customers had mixed results, with certain weeds like annual bluegrass still growing. Adjusting the spreader settings higher than recommended was also needed by some to achieve adequate coverage. Overall, the majority of customers were satisfied with the product's performance as a preventative measure when used as directed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We live in an agricultural area and our house wasbuilt in1875. The lawn wasn't taken care of mainly because of chickens and bunny's living around us. The side yard is pretty thick with patches of clover. The Scotts WeedEx Prevent with Halt is made to clear that cliver so healthy grass can be grown. My husband used a spreader where the clover was abundant and applied it before the week of rain came. Huge difference! Clover was gone, grass was gr...

Be Gone Crabgrass!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] In the past, I have had a terrible crabgrass problem in the back yard, but luckily that is now a thing of the past. I usually apply it in the spring, and I use a spreader to do so because it ensures that the product is applied evenly. The instructions advise applying the product immediately prior to rainfall, and that is exactly what I did. They key is getting to the crabgrass early on in the season before it takes a hold on the grass. It w...

Greener and healthier.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I applied Scotts Weed Ex to my lawn at my house in the mountains a few weeks ago. I went up yesterday to find the broadleaf weeds curled up and the lawn is greener than my neighbors. I'm not sure if the nutrients in the product helped to green up the lawn faster than my neighbor, but the proof is on the lawn. I was concerned about the safety for the deer and wildlife who visit constantly but as long as it's applied to a moist lawn and allowed t...

excellent product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Another excellent product from Scotts, similar to other Scotts products for lawn care which I have used for the past several years. This helps with crabgrass prevention, as well as spring yard fertilization. It covered well and hopefully should last into the season. No problems or concerns so far.

Great product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use WeedEx every year in the spring to control the germination of weed seeds. My lawn is pretty lush and thick so I normally don't have a weed problem. Some of my neighbors have weedy lawns and I use this to prevent the seeds that blow from their weeds germinating in my lawn.

Bye Bye Crabgrass
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My experience with Scotts WeedEX is that it is extremely effective at preventing crabgrass from invading my lawn. It is not, however, as effective at killing existing crabgrass. In the Northeast where I live, WeedEx needs to be applied to the lawn early in the season (mid March to mid April). WeedEx can also be applied in the Fall to help prevent crabgrass from appearing in the following Spring. Even though WeedEx kills other types of weeds, I ...

Easy to use
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried out the Scotts® WeedEx™ Prevent with Halts. It prevents crabgrass all year long. I poured the bag into my scotts speader. It was enough to cover my front and back yard. It had low odor. I waited until it was a dry day and was going to rain that evening. It need water to make sure it soaked into the soil. I did this about a week ago and i haven't see any crabgrass yet. I like that this product prevents this all year with just one...

Perfect for warm season grass in February and May
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I live in Wake Forest, NC, and I have warm-season grasses. Scotts WeedEx Prevent with Halts is perfect for my Zoysia grass. I apply this product in February when I need to focus on pre-emergent timing and reapply in late April. I like this product because it does not fertilize, as Zoysia grass is best fertilized in late May; it only provides pre-emergent weed control. I have used it for the past several years and have had virtually no crabgrass...

Get rid of them crabgrass!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This 10-pound bag "WeedEx" with Halts should adequately control and eradicate unwanted crab grass in a moderate-sized yard. Apply it a week after using the Weed and Feed product by Scott. It must be applied during early spring or fall to prevent winter weeds. Use a spreader to apply it and follow the instructions on the bag. Avoiding foot traffic after application for at least several days is best. Watering your lawn should be resumed after a f...

Only for grass type weeds
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Weed Ex is only for grass type weeds. It acts as a pre emergent for those types of weeds. If you are looking for a pre emergent for grass type weeds, Scotts Fertilizer plus Halts make more sense and is a beater value. The product does work well in its lane.

Going to apply today and see how it goes. Looking to control weeds that grow on my yard due to my neighbor not caring for their yard. Fingers crossed!!

Crab grass be gone
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Crabgrass is a big problem for me because I have neighbors that don’t take care of their crap grass and then it blows down my driveway and into my yard, but when I use the Scotts crabgrass preventer it stops to grab grass from growing you need to make sure you put this down early in the spring and then you will have the crab grass And then maybe in the fall.

Quality Product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a really good product. It was easy to apply using my spreader and following the directions on the bag. We've had a particularly wet spring and the lawn took a while to dry enough for use. My yard is fairly large and this bag covered it with a little leftover.

So far - working great!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Scotts WeedEx Prevent with Halts is giving me the reassurance that once I put this down on my law, the crabgrass is gone! I have been using Scotts products for years as a landscaper and crabgrass has been a challenge to keep out of our lawns. I don't have to worry about that any longer. The Halts addition to the already great Prevent product seems to be working so far and I've noticed considerably less unsighthly grasses and that the lawns are ...
