Does the job!

I put this down three times a year using a 50 Gal tank sprayer (mixed at a rate of 1/2 gal. Surge to 49 gals. of water) over three and a half acres. It yellows all the weeds in about two days after the first rain and completely kills them in about 1-2 weeks. I have tried several other products, but the best results have come from Surge.

Chamberbitter Slayer
By Jeffrey on 06/28/2017
I purchased this because my yard is invested with Chamber Bitter. If you have this weed you know that it is one of the most tenacious weeds to control. Most herbicides do have 0 affects on this weed. Most articles recommend manually extracting the weed. Easy enough in a garden bed, but tough as nails in the grass. This bugger puts out a very dense root package. The Surge label itself does NOT list this weed. On a chance I purchased Surge. I had little hope that it would work and was worried about what the side affects in my Zoysia. To my surprise, three days after application the weeds I targeted were brown and on their last legs. I may need a reapplication but will wait three weeks before applying. This stuff slays Chamber Bitter! Yea!

Good product

I applied Surge to the Henbit, dandelions, et al and waited. It does take a few weeks but the weeds stunted, turned yellow, and withered. It is not like Roundup where the plants shrivel within 24 hours. This takes a week or more - but it is effective.

Kills Doveweed, Spurge, and more in my Florida Bermuda lawn
By Sean on 08/11/2018
This is quickly becoming the go to herbicide for our Bermuda lawn. Doveweed and Spurge were two hard to control weeds that were quickly spreading through our lawn this summer (again). This is the first product that I've used that was successful in killing them without killing the Bermuda. I did find that if I used the product on a very hot day (91++) the Bermuda did get burned and turned brown, but it didn't kill it.

Great Stuff to do Battle Against Weeds
By John on 10/15/2017
This Season (2017) I had a large problem dealing with "dove-weed" and some chamberbitter/gripe weed. Dove-weed was just taking over the north-west side of my home. I started the spring by hand-pulling, but could no longer keep up with the growth. "Surge" took care of it. It did take 2 application, the dove-weed was all one could see, but definitely did the job.

Surge Broadleaf Herbicide

The Only Place to Shop for Pest Control
By Jim on 07/18/2017
I had a problem with a weed I call a mini mimosa tree. I checked with DMOPC and had a chat session. They told me about "Surge" to kill the mini mimosa. I ordered some "Surge", it arrived the next day, and the weeds are dying. I have used Do My Own Pest Control for a long time and they have never failed me. Great service, great products, great prices, immediate delivery.

I'm impressed!
By Michael on 04/11/2020
I never write reviews, but fell compelled to on this. I have been fighting Oxalis the past 5 years. The Ortho product I have used in the past has done an "OK" job, but has never really impressed me. I finished spraying my 2 acres at about 5:00 pm on Tuesday, went and walked around the yard at noon the next day and the stems and leaves were already starting to curl. I only gave 4 stars because I want to see if it kills it down to the root. Very impressed so far though!

Surge Broadleaf Herbicide for turf
By Greg on 09/11/2022
The product looked like it was working for a couple of weeks but did not kill any of the clover. It turned it a little brown but came right back. It did kill a very few of the weeds but not many. I was very disappointed.
Expert response:
We apologize you did not achieve the intended results. Clover can be difficult to control and may require repeat treatments
Disappointing and Frustrating
By Shelley on 03/20/2021
I researched weed killers and specifically chose this one because it was supposed to be safe for bermuda grass, and it was suppposed to kill bullheads and dandelions. Three days after application, my bermuda lawn is spotted with dead grass areas, and has an explosion of dandelion seed puffs. Yes, the other broadleaf weeds look dead. I think the product worked on the bullheads, but I am still waiting to see. If that result turns out to be good, then I will adjust my review somewhat.
Surge KILLING centipede lawn!
By Bob on 10/05/2020
After purchasing Surge to eradicate common lespedeza in my centipede lawn...and...waiting for the daytime high temperatures to drop below 90F....following ALL directions, I am extremely upset that it has begun killing my centipede grass while there are absolutely no signs that it has done anything to thwart the growth of the lespedeza. This was an expensive purchase and will be extremely expensive if it kills all of my centipede grass lawn. I want answers and I want them now!

Will kill you Lawn

Surge
By Gayle on 07/13/2020
Bought some Surge to kill weeds in my Bermuda grass.. Mixed as directed, it did not hurt the Bermuda and killed everything but either dallisgrass or crabgrass. We haven't figured out which it is. Delivery was timely and package arrived in good shape. If anybody has an easy sure fire killer for this, let me know is I have been pulling this unwanted grass out by hand. Will order again from Do My Own.
Did not get satisfactory results
By Dj on 08/19/2019
I got this product after recommendation from the DMO customer service recommendation. I would give it 3-star as that's the amount of weeds this herbicide controlled. It only controlled about 50-60% weeds for me which emerged back within 3-4 weeks. I always tried a higher doze and even doubled the recommended dose ~3oz per 1000 sqft of the area. The result were slightly better but the weeds were back to normal again in 3-4 weeks. I am not happy with this product and I am looking for a different product now.

Surge weed control
By Cindy on 07/05/2019
I have a certain weed in my yard along with many others that through the last two years are choking out my centipede. Clover included an I think this is a kin to clover but not the same. Have tried several products suggested to me. It laughs at them. A friend that was in landscaping many years told me about this product. Can be used in heat like 90degrees to 100. I sprayed a gallon worth and he told me yo use 2 it's per gallon. It stayed on at least 4 hours before it rained. After a small amount of rain the clover was wilted. Next day whatever the dense weed I'm fighting was turning yellow. A couple of weeks have passed and that weed is now turning ing nothing. Centipede is already staring to come through. Raking up the dead areas was not recommended. It's been amazing. Another weed was black within hours. He said did great on several hard to get rid of weeds like dollar weed. Super impressed. Trying to sell our home but if we don't sell I still like a nice yard. Kinda pricey but well worth it as it is killing the weeds. Has not hurt centipede at all.
This product works!
