How to optimise Bow and Arrow Herbicide application

How to optimise Bow & Arrow herbicide

To get the best possible results all year round, follow these application principles:

✔ Apply to actively growing weeds

Bow & Arrow works through leaf absorption, so the more actively the weeds are growing the better it will work.

✔ Avoid extreme conditions

Avoid application:

  • In windy conditions
  • When frosts are imminent
  • If rain is expected within 4 hours

✔ Use correct mixing and spray technique

  • Mix only what you need for the day at a rate of 50ml per 100sqm
  • Use a pressure sprayer
  • Use in conjunction with a surfactant such as Wetter600

✔ Mowing guidelines

Avoid mowing 4 days before and after application to ensure enough leaf surface for absorption.

✔ Expect gradual results

Complete weed death may take up to 6 weeks, with faster results on smaller weeds.
