Control weeds in warm season Couch lawns with a Pre-Emergent herbicide

Date: 06-03-2025

What is a Pre-Emergent Herbicide? 

A pre-emergent is a herbicide that prevents weeds from germinating in your lawn or garden.

Why Pre-Emergents Are Essential?

  1. Weed Control: By preventing weeds from germinating in the first place, you significantly reduce the need for post-emergent applications.
  2. Healthier Turf: Weeds compete with your lawn for essential resources like water, nutrients, and sunlight. By minimising weed competition, pre-emergents allow your lawn to thrive.
  3. Cost-Effective: It can save you money in the long run by reducing the need for frequent post-emergent applications and hard work.

How to prevent weeds in my lawn?

  • Apply a pre-emergent in early spring and autumn.
  • Regularly inspect your lawn for any emerging weeds.
  • Use pre-emergent herbicides like RECONDO or MONUMENT to spot-treat any breakthrough weeds.
  • Maintain healthy turf through proper mowing, watering, and fertilising.
  • ProForce Recondo 100 WG: This selective herbicide targets specific weeds that have already emerged in your established turf. Its water-dispersible granule formulation ensures easy mixing and application.
