How does Barricade Pre-Emergent Herbicide HG work?

As a pre-emergent herbicide application, the delivery of Barricade close to the soil surface will ensure optimum results. Barricade should be applied before weeds germinate and then lightly watered in within 24 hours after application and irrigation, 

Barricade locks onto the top 1-2 cm of the soil, providing a barrier that controls germinating weeds for up to 6 months. Barricades re-entry period is once it is dry on the leaf or washed in. Please keep in mind that renovations post-application may break up the barrier set at the top of the soil, in which case the Barricade Herbicide would need to be reapplied after recovery. The application of Barricade Pre-Emergent Herbicide HG can be carried out well in advance of weeds germinating and still deliver season-long control.
