Ronstar G Herbicide is applied at 2-1/4 lbs per 1000 sq ft for poa annua in a Bermuda lawn. The label states to apply in the late summer or early fall prior to seed germination of the poa annua. If you were to apply to established poa annua it will not be controlled.
What is Ronstar?
RONSTAR G Herbicide is a preemergent herbicide for control of many annual grasses and broadleaf weeds in turf and on a wide variety of woody ornamental shrubs, vines, and trees.

What is the best liquid pre-emergent herbicide?
The Best Pre-Emergent Herbicides:
- Prodiamine (Barricade equivalent) is the longest-lasting, and most economical due to lowest application rates.
- Isoxaben (Gallery equivalent) prevents a very large list of Broadleaf Weeds.
- Oxadiazon (Ronstar equivalent) is a great granular option – safe in all turf and ornamentals.
Is barricade a pre or post-emergent?

Is barricade a post emergent?
BARRICADE is a selective pre-emergent herbicide that provides residual control of weeds in established turf, garden beds and potted plants. BARRICADE controls susceptible weeds by interfering with cell division in the root tips of newly germinated weeds.
What type of control is a barricade?
In its simplest terms, a traffic barricade is a portable or fixed system having from one to three rails with proper marking and is used to control road traffic by closing, limiting, or diverting oncoming traffic from another area. There are generally three types of barricades, called Type I, Type II, and Type III.

What happens if you put down too much pre-emergent?
“If an applicator applies too much herbicide, not only is it not cost effective and a label violation, this may injure the desired turfgrass depending on the rate and product used. An excessive application may also prevent the proper establishment of grass seed later in the season.”
What happens if it rains after spraying herbicide?
For many herbicides, any amount of rainfall soon after spraying has the potential to reduce absorption, translocation, and subsequent weed control. If you apply herbicide and it rains before it’s rainfast, herbicide performance will be reduced.
What happens if it rains after spraying?
Rain just before or after an application does not have a major effect on the success of the treatment. The products we use are oil based, and are not “washed off” by the rain. In fact, we are not treating foliage at all, but spraying in the air while mosquitoes are flying, impacting them at that time.
What is the best time of day to spray weeds?
In both the burndown and in-crop studies, the most effective timing was usually midday, followed by midnight. Coles says, “Since night spraying was usually more effective than dawn, night spraying could be a good option when daytime opportunities for spraying are limited.”
Why is spraying done in the morning?
“Maybe by spraying early in the morning or even at night when you have that heavy dew, that dew could be helping distribute the fungicide deeper into the canopy, helping control the areas that tend to be the spots where infections are coming on.”
What is the best time for spraying?
The best time to have your home sprayed is in early spring. By spraying in the spring, you have the opportunity to destroy nests and colonies when pest numbers are low. The treatment has less work to do, making it more effective and longer lasting.
Does adding dish soap to Roundup help?
Dish soap is used as a surfactant, both when washing dishes and applying herbicide to plants. While it might effectively remove grease and food from plates, dish soap probably should not be the “go-to” surfactant for herbicides.
