About Fiesta®
Fiesta® turf weed killer is a mineral-based herbicide that is perfect for treatment of broadleaf weeds in lawns, turf, parks, playgrounds, cemeteries, and athletic fields. And here’s why:
The Quick Facts:
- Kills weeds, not lawns
- Works in wide range of temperatures (10°C-29°C)
- Rainfast in 3 hours- you can water the following morning after application as a best practice
- Lawn areas can be re-sown within a day of treatment with Fiesta
- People and pets can enter treated area when spray dries (2 to 3 hours)
- No unpleasant odor like traditional sprays
What will Fiesta® work on?
Fiesta turf weed killer controls or suppresses weeds including: Black medic, Broadleaf plantain, Bull thistle, Canada thistle, Common chickweed, Creeping buttercup, Dandelion, Dovefoot geranium, English daisy, False dandelion, Healall, Moss, liverworts, algae and lichens, Narrow-leaved plantain, Persian speedwell, Shepherd’s-purse, Silverweed cinquefoil, Slender speedwell, White clover, and Wild chamomile.
How does Fiesta® work compared to traditional Herbicide products?
Fiesta® can achieve the same results, however timing and the number of applications vary from the traditional products. With lower spray temperatures Fiesta® can be sprayed earlier in the season, however since the iron toxicity of Fiesta® is essentially a top growth killer it is important to do a second application to ensure the best control of the weeds.
A minimum two applications is recommended, for optimum control you may wish to go with 3-4 applications per season. The second application is done approximately 4 weeks after first spray date.
Low Risk
Fiesta® is an iron based product that has no unpleasant odors and as well is safe for children and pets within a few hours. It is an effective alternate to 2,4-D/Par3 to control your broadleaf weeds on home lawns, school grounds, and golf course.
