Would RecommendMy weeds haven't grown back since April 2026. It creates like a shield so the weeds don't grow. I recommend and will use again.

Preen kills myrtle
Would Not RecommendI applied Preen to a myrtle bed to hopefully prevent Japanese stilt grass from emerging. Killed my myrtle. I will have to have landscaper plant grass or cover with landscaping stones.

Great product
Would RecommendWhen spring comes, I weed my garden with a weed pole, easy, pick up some big ones, plant my new annuals and apply preen. No weeds grow. After a few weeks I turn my soil a bit with my weed tool and apply again. I love it. I like a weed free garden bed.

Love Preen
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used Preen for my flower beds for the last several years. I am elderly & cannot bend over to weed so this is a godsend. Last year I started using it in my vegetable garden. Since I only plant established plants it worked really well. Between using the preen & a muclh, my garden was a breeze to care for.

Wasted money
Would Not RecommendPurchased your product for years and have never seen it work so poorly. I even reapplied and still am spending hours weeding my garden. It's either a bad batch or they're reformulated and it's now a bad product.

Many people stop by to walk thru my garden and always ask how I keep weed...
