How Winter grass Killer Works
Winter grass Killer uses Propyzamide to stunt the growth of winter grass, particularly the newly germinating seeds emerging in Autumn. Once growth is halted, winter grass cannot spread or reproduce, allowing your Couch or Buffalo lawn to maintain density and appearance throughout the cooler months.
Essential Watering Requirements
To activate the herbicide and ensure lethal uptake:
- Water in thoroughly with 12–25 mm of irrigation or rainfall immediately after application.
- This moves the product into the soil where germinating winter grass seeds absorb it.
- Heavier infestations may require 2–3 applications, spaced several weeks apart.
Important Usage Guidelines
- Do not mow turf 2 days before or after application.
- Do not spray if rain is likely within 4 hours.
- Do not spray weeds wet from dew or rain.
- Avoid spraying weeds under stress (heat, waterlogging, drought).
- Keep domestic animals off treated areas until the product has dried.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is David Grays Winter Grass Killer used for?
David Grays Winter Grass Killer is a selective herbicide designed to control annual winter grasses in lawns, particularly species such as winter grass (Poa annua). It is commonly used in couch, buffalo, and other established turf types to maintain a clean, uniform lawn.
How does David Grays Winter Grass Killer work?
It works by being absorbed through the leaves and roots of target winter grass plants, disrupting their growth and preventing them from developing further. The treated weeds gradually stop growing, discolour, and die off over time while the surrounding turf remains unaffected when used correctly.
When is the best time to apply Winter Grass Killer?
The best time to apply David Grays Winter Grass Killer is during active growth of winter grass, typically in cooler months when weeds are young and actively developing. Early application provides the most effective control before seed heads form.
How long does it take to see results?
Visible results usually appear within 1 to 3 weeks after application, depending on weather conditions, weed maturity, and application timing. A follow-up application may be needed for heavy infestations.
How should David Grays Winter Grass Killer be applied?
It should be applied as a diluted spray using calibrated spraying equipment, ensuring even coverage over affected lawn areas. For best results, avoid mowing for a few days before and after application and apply when weeds are actively growing.
What is the active ingredient in David Grays Winter Grass Killer?
The active constituent is Propyzamide. It works by disrupting the growth of winter grass at the root and germinating seed stage, which is why it needs to be watered into the soil after application to be fully effective.
Do I need to water it in after applying?
Yes. Unlike a typical foliar spray, this product needs to be watered into the soil to reach germinating seed — apply 12–25mm of irrigation (or equivalent rainfall) straight after spraying for best results.
Will one application get rid of my winter grass completely?
Not always. Heavier infestations may need 2–3 applications spaced several weeks apart for full control, especially if the weed has already spread through a large area of the lawn.
Is it safe for all lawn types?
It's safe on established Couch and Buffalo lawns, but it's not suitable for Kentucky Bluegrass, ryegrass, fescue or bent grass — always check your lawn type before applying.
Amazing wintergrass herbicide. It has halted the growth of the wintergrass. Normally by this time after mowing, it shoots up and is 2cms above the couch
David grays granular winter grass killer first applied 4 weeks ago. 60 percent success. Will try another application to see if I have complete success
Hi Guys, I followed the instructions carefully and applied it with a pump operated sprayer, I then ran my retic for 15 minutes as per the instructions and measured the area to ensure it was applied at the right dose. That was a couple of weeks ago and it looks exactly the same. Winter grass is still nice and green! I'f bought lots of products from you and they've worked really well, not this one unfortunately
yeah did all the directions and to be frank it didnt work....
Great service as always
