What Customers Are Saying
The product has had mixed results. Some customers reported it did not effectively kill weeds, especially broadleaf weeds and dollar weed, and that it damaged or killed their grass while leaving the weeds intact. Others found it worked well on certain weeds like dandelions, but not others. The product seems to work better on some grass types than others, and may require multiple applications. Many were dissatisfied and would not recommend it, but a smaller number did report success in killing weeds without harming their lawn when following the instructions carefully.
Customer review summary generated by AI, including incentivized reviews.The best for Texas
Would RecommendThis is absolutely the best product for St. Augustine lawns in North Texas. The chance of damaging your lawn with this is much lower than with other products I have used. Just be sure to mix properly at the right ratio. I know you will be tempted to use "just a little more". Don't do it.

Not impressed
Would Not RecommendI've used other Bayer products that were outstanding. This was not -- possibly because it's so dry. I'll wait until we have some rain - if ever - and see if there are better results.

Used as directed but terrible
Would Not RecommendAfter mowing grass I used entire bottle on the weeds and after a week the broad leaf weeds are flourishing and not dying. Maybe 5 % of weeds started to wilt. No dandelions in yard before I started so not sure it will work on those. Waste of time and $13

Killed 50% of my St. Augustine Lawn
Would Not RecommendI used this as in big letters on the front is says "For St. Augustine". I used this on my lawn in Houston, TX and it killed 50%+ of my St. Augustine, I am guessing we have a blend if types of St. Augustine here and this just killed much of the active type in early spring. I am glad I did not use this on all my lawn and just did some of it. The picture shows the line between a section of the lawn I did not spray and part where I did spray.
This is not normal, and definitely not the outcome we’d expect. I can see why you’d be upset, Mark, and I’d like to gather more details about how thi... Read More

Didn't work
Would Not RecommendI have bought Bayer products before and was satisfied but not this time. I mixed the chemical with water as per the instructions and the results were very dissapointing. I used it on many types of weeds and waited a week and nothing really happened, so I tried again with a little more chemical added to the water and still not much of a difference. Living in Florida the weeds never stop so I will have to try another brand. I would not recommend this one.
I am sorry to hear about your disappointment. After application it may take about 5-7 days to begin seeing visible results to targeted weeds such as ... Read More

Do not risk on St Augustine grass
Would Not RecommendUsed this and it did a great job of killing the lawn. Any contra-indications for St Augustine should be labeled in very very bold print somewhere.
