Surefire Multi Turf Herbicide delivers exceptional broadleaf weed control in turf through its powerful combination of three active ingredients – Diflufenican, MCPA, and Clopyralid. This strategic formulation utilises two distinct modes of action (Groups 4 and 12), working synergistically to achieve superior results at lower application rates than individual treatments. 

Surefire Multi Turf Herbicide is specifically designed to target broadleaf weeds while maintaining turf safety, this versatile herbicide is compatible with both warm and cool-season grasses and can be applied throughout the year, offering turf managers outstanding flexibility in their weed management programs.

What weeds does Surefire Multi Turf Herbicide control?

  • Broadleaf weeds, including;
    • White Clover (Trifoliumrepens)
    • Plantain (Plantago lanceolata)
    • Capeweed (Arctotheca calendula)
    • Cat’s Ear (Hypochaeris radicata)
    • Bin-dii (bindii, bindi, bindyi or bindi-eye) (Jo-Jo, Onehunga) (Soliva sessilis)
    • Cudweed (Gnaphalium spp.)
    • Creeping Oxalis (Oxalis corniculata)

Where can Surefire Multi Turf Herbicide be used;

  • Surefire Multi Turf Herbicide can be used on most turf varieties, including Buffalo*.
  • Transient discolouration may occur on Kikuyu, Carpet grass and Queensland Blue Couch.
  • *Varietal differences in certain Buffalo grasses (e.g. ST85) may produce more pronounced effects, and therefore, it is recommended that small areas be tested for turf safety before large-scale application occurs.
  • It should not be used on bentgrass or winter grass golf and bowling greens.

How do you get the best results from Surefire Multi Turf Herbicide;

  • Avoid exceeding application rates through overlapping sprayed areas.
  • Use a surfactant for difficult-to-wet weeds.
  • For best results, the turf and weeds should be actively growing at the time of treatment.
  • Complete weed death may take up to 6 weeks. 
  • Faster results can be expected on smaller weeds.
  • Due to residual effects on diflufenican, overseeding treated areas within 3 months of application may inhibit the establishment of the turf grass.

Why are selective turf herbicides like Surefire Multi Turf Herbicide, containing Diflufenican, MCPA, and Clopyralid, considered good products for targeting broadleaf weeds in turf?

Broad Spectrum Control: This combination of active ingredients provides control over a wide range of broadleaf weeds commonly found in turf. Each ingredient targets different weed species, ensuring comprehensive control.

  • Different Modes of Action:  These herbicides have different modes of action, meaning they disrupt different plant processes. This is important for preventing herbicide resistance in weeds.
    • Diflufenican: Inhibits carotenoid biosynthesis, essential for photosynthesis, leading to bleaching and death of the weed.
    • MCPA:  A growth regulator that disrupts the plant’s hormonal balance, causing abnormal growth and, ultimately, death.
    • Clopyralid:  Another growth regulator that mimics plant hormones, leading to uncontrolled growth and eventual death of the weed.   
  • Synergistic Effect: The combination of these three active ingredients creates a synergistic effect, meaning they work better together than individually. This results in more effective weed control at lower application rates.   
  • Safety for Turfgrass: These herbicides are selective, meaning they are designed to target broadleaf weeds while leaving most turfgrasses unharmed. This is crucial for maintaining a healthy lawn while effectively controlling weeds.   
  • Flexibility in Application: These herbicides can be used in various turfgrass types, including both cool and warm-season grasses. Surefire Multi Turf Herbicide can be applied at different times of the year, providing flexibility in weed control strategies.   
  • Reduced Risk of Resistance:  By combining herbicides with different modes of action (Group 4 & 12), the development of herbicide resistance in weeds is minimised. This helps ensure long-term weed control efficacy.

It’s crucial to remember that even selective herbicides like Surefire Multi Turf Herbicide can damage turfgrass if not used correctly. Always follow the product label instructions carefully, including application rates, timing, and precautions.
