Killzall Herbicide Application Instructions
Protect any desirable plants with pieces of cardboard, plastic sheets or other materials if spraying in close proximity. Use the maximum amount for perennial weeds, brush and lawn renovation. For a 32-ounce sprayer, mix 2 2/3 teaspoons to 4 teaspoons of concentrate into 4 cups of water. Spray any undesirable vegetation along walkways, patios, fences, flowerbeds, trees and other areas. Avoid spraying lawns unless you're performing lawn renovation because it will kill the grass. Cut back any brush or vines above 5 feet with a weed trimmer or shears then spray them thoroughly with the herbicide. Shield the shrub or tree with cardboard. Pour enough undiluted concentrate over the stump to cover it and fill the nail holes.

Tip
Choose a day with calm wind to spray the herbicide to prevent the spray from drifting and being wasted.
Apply on a sunny day when the temperature is 60 degrees Fahrenheit or higher.
For best results, apply the herbicide at first sight of the weeds while they are young and still growing.
One gallon of the mixed Killzall herbicide covers about 300 square feet.
