I want kill Bermuda in el toro zoysia. Am I to apply more than once, and how long between applications?

The directions look to be a mix of 2.5 oz to 3.0 oz per acre and add a surfactant, but not sure of amount. Also, it is suggested to apply about June 1st. I live in Bakersfield, CA. Am I to apply more than once, and how long between applications?

Answer:

Fusilade II Herbicide can be used to remove Bermuda grass from zoysia grass when used at reduced rates. Applications should be made around June 1st per the product label.
Apply 0.07-0.14 oz/1000 sq. ft. (3-6 oz./A) along with 0.25% v/v (1/2 pt./25 gals.) of a nonionic surfactant. Application should be made every 28 days when the grass weeds are actively growing. Keep in mind for herbicides the amount of water is not important. What is important is getting the correct amount of product, over the correct amount of area. Mark off 1000 sq/ft and fill your sprayer tank with only water. Spray as if you were covering the area with the herbicide. However many gallons it takes you to cover that area is how many gallons to mix the product with. Everyone's walking speed and how heavily they spray is different, which is why whether you use 2 gallons or 8 gallons of water to cover 1000 sq/ft, you are correct. Usage chart for spot treatments: 1 gallon water  +   .75 fl oz of Fusilade  +   .5 oz surfactant

10 gallons water   +   6.5 fl oz Fusilade   +   3 oz surfactant

25 gallons water   +   1 pint Fusilade  +   .5 pint surfactant

50 gallon water   +    1 qt Fusilade   +   1 pint surfactant
