DIRECTIONS FOR USE

It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
READ THE ENTIRE LABEL. USE ONLY ACCORDING TO LABEL  INSTRUCTIONS.

WHEN TO USE

Use anytime weeds are actively growing. Most treated weeds usually show initial symptoms in 2–4 days and complete kill in 1 to 2 weeks. Larger more established weeds may take up to 4 weeks for complete kill. For best results, apply on a warm sunny day when the daytime temperature is above 60°F and no rainfall is forecast for 24 hours. Warm, sunny weather will speed up weed control. Apply only when air is calm. Reapply if it rains within 2 hours after application. Rainfall or watering 2 hours after application will not wash away effectiveness. Hard-to-control weeds (such as bermudagrass) may require a repeat application if they regrow. NOT recommended for spot weed control in lawns since  COMPARE-N-SAVE CONCENTRATE GRASS & WEED KILLER 41% GLYPHOSATE kills all green plants, including lawn grass.

• Around fruits, vegetables, flowers, shrubs or trees
• Along fences
In Large Areas:| • For lawn replacement
• For garden replacement

WHERE TO USE
General Weed Control: Use along fences, paths, patios, sidewalks and driveways, around trees, shrubs, and ornamental plantings and flower beds, around buildings, and in brick and gravel walkways. Use to trim and edge landscape areas. DO NOT use for spot weed control in lawns since COMPARE-N-SAVE CONCENTRATE GRASS & WEED  KILLER 41% GLYPHOSATE kills all green plants, including lawn grass.
Spot Spraying: Use on actively growing weeds in and around flower beds, ornamental trees, fruit and nut trees, grapevines, shrubs, fences, driveways and walkways. Spray when air is calm. Make sure COMPARE-N-SAVE CONCENTRATE GRASS & WEED KILLER 41% GLYPHOSATE does not contact the leaves, green stems, or exposed roots of plants you don’t want to kill. If necessary, use cardboard or plastic to shield plants. COMPARE-N-SAVE CONCENTRATE GRASS & WEED KILLER 41%  GLYPHOSATE will not move in or on the soil to untreated plants. If COMPARE-N-SAVE CONCENTRATE GRASS & WEED KILLER 41% GLYPHOSATE is used to
control weeds around fruit or nut trees or grapevines, allow 21 days before eating the fruit or nuts.
Landscaping: Use to prepare areas for planting of ornamentals, trees, shrubs, desert landscapes, rock gardens, flower beds or similar plantings. Treated areas can be replanted 1  day after treatment.

Lawn Renovation:

• Use COMPARE-N-SAVE CONCENTRATE GRASS & WEED KILLER 41% GLYPHOSATE to kill existing weeds and grasses including the old lawn.
• For best results, apply in Spring or Fall, when daytime temperatures are at least 60°F.
• Under dry conditions, water lawn every other day for a week before using this product.
• Do not mow for 7 days before or after treatment.
• After 7 days, prepare the soil for planting by raking or rototilling the lawn. Rake up and remove loosened thatch or debris.
• Mix in starter fertilizer and other amendments, if needed. Level the soil.
• Apply seed according to directions on seed package, or install sod.
• Grass seed must have a good contact with soil to germinate and grow.
• Keep area moist for 2 weeks to establish new lawn, then water as needed.

Brush Control: Use when the brush is green and growing. If plants are taller than 5 feet, cut back and spray regrowth. Brush sprayed in the fall may not be fully controlled until the following season. Hard-to-control species such as Blackberry, Kudzu, or Poison Oak may require a second application. Stump Treatment: Stumps can be treated to prevent regrowth. For best results, treat when the vegetation is actively growing and within 5 minutes of being cut down.

• Cut the stump close to the soil surface.
• Drive 4–5 nail holes into the stump.
• Flood the stump with undiluted product.

This treatment will control or suppress many types of woody brush and trees, such as alder, bluegum, eucalyptus, madrone, oak, giant reed, salt cedar, sweetgum, and tanoak.

To Kill Vines:

• If the vine is growing up a pole, fences, or mature tree trunk, cut vine to a height of 3 to 4 feet and spray to thoroughly cover the remaining vine.
• If the vine is climbing a shrub or immature (green) tree trunk, cut vines at the base and spray its regrowth. Shield shrubs and green bark from spray drift with a sheet (piece) of cardboard or plastic.

IMPORTANT: COMPARE-N-SAVE CONCENTRATE GRASS & WEED KILLER 41% GLYPHOSATE is an all-purpose weed and grass killer which will kill almost all lants contacted.
