How to Apply-

• For some weeds, a second application made 2-4 weeks later may be needed for complete weed control

Broadcast Applications-

• Broadcast applications should be made with calibrated spray equipment
• For broadcast applications, use a minimum of 10 GAL/ACRE. For weed control in dense populations, the optimum spray volume is 60 GAL/ACRE.

Spot Treatments-

• For spot treatments, mix 0.057-0.113 OZ (1.6-3.2 g.) of Celsius WG herbicide per GAL in a sprayer and apply until weeds are wet
• For difficult-to-control weeds, such as Virginia buttonweed or dollarweed, make a second application when re-growth is observed

Turf Tolerance- Gain Control Without Risk of Damaging Turfgrass at High-Temperatures

Celsius Bayer herbicide has been carefully formulated to take down those challenging weeds while remaining extremely safe on St. Augustinegrass and other warm-season turf types. This product has been tested and can be used on the following types of turfgrass and their cultivars:

• St. Augustinegrass (Floratam, Palmetto, Bitter Blue, Common, Amerishade, Raleigh, Sapphire, Delmar, Captiva)
• Bermudagrass (Tifway 419, Common, Tifsport, Discovery, Celebration, Sahara)
• Centipedegrass (Tifblair)
• Zoysiagrass (Meyer, Empire, Crown, Palisades, Cavalier, Zorro, DeAnza, Zenith)
• Buffalograss (Legacy, Cody)

Other turfgrasses and their cultivars may be tolerant to this product. However, tolerance testing must be done before use. Some temporary discoloration of certain warm-season grasses may occur to turf under stress from drought, disease, extreme cold or hot weather.

Do not use this product on bahiagrass, seashore paspalum, or cool-season turf types, including tall fescue, fine fescue, Kentucky bluegrass, perennial ryegrass, or creeping bentgrass.

Celsius Herbicide can damage or control cool-season grasses. Some use sites, including many golf courses, grow warm and cool-season grasses in the same vicinity. To reduce the probability of Celsius WG Herbicide being moved from its application site to adjacent areas containing sensitive grasses, practice the following.

• To prevent tracking from the application site onto sensitive grasses, maintain a 25' untreated buffer.
• Allow the leaf surface of treated turf to dry several hours before allowing foot traffic or equipment in the treated area adjacent to sensitive grasses.
• When there may be a risk to adjacent sensitive grasses, apply Celsius weed killer when the soil is less than field capacity. Avoid applications to saturated soil.
• Allow CELSIUS WG HERBICIDE to be absorbed several hours prior to an irrigation cycle. If dew is present on the day following application, irrigate lightly (0.1"-0.2") before allowing foot traffic or equipment on the treated area.
