• Amenity grassland: Areas of semi-natural or planted grassland subject to minimal or non-intensive management
• Grassland: Land grown for grass production which may be grazed and/or cut for animal consumption

When to use

Praxys can be used between 1st March to 30th October and is most effective when used to treat weeds that are actively growing.

For optimum efficacy, the timing of the application of Grazon Pro is crucial:

How to use

Grazon Pro can be applied using handheld spraying equipment such as a knapsack sprayer using a medium spray quality nozzle:

• Half fill the spray tank with water
• Add the required amount of Grazon Pro and agitate to ensure thorough mixing
• Add the remaining water and continue to agitate
• Maintain agitation of the spray solution whilst spraying
• When spraying ensure foliage is thoroughly wetted but run-off should be avoided
• To allow maximum translocation, avoid cutting the grass for up to 28 days after application
• After spraying clean all spraying equipment inside and out, using a suitable spray tank cleaner

Additional Information

• Do not use where clippings are collected for use in mulch, compost or green waste
• Do not apply onto or around manure or other compost heaps
• Do not us on land that will be grazed by livestock or where vegetation will be ued for animal feed or bedding within 12 months of treatment
• Avoid contact with non-target plants
• Be aware that conifers are particularly sensitive to spray drift
• Avoid applying when conditions are not suitable for active plant growth

Active Substances

Clopyralid and triclopyr

Bio-Chemical Mode of Action: Clopyralid and triclopyr belong to the synthetic auxins group of herbicides.

Synthetic auxins work by inducing rapid abnormal cell growth and development in the stems, petioles and leaves of susceptible plants causing cell bursts and ultimately cell and plant death.

Mobility: Clopyralid and triclopyr are systemic penetrants which means that the active substance can be translocated downwards through the plant within the phloem (sugar conducting tissues) and upwards through the plant within the xylem (water conducting tissues).

Application timing: Systemic auxins are best applied when the weeds are actively growing. They are generally more effective when target plants are younger and in their vegetative phases.

Resistance: The incidences of resistance to synthetic auxins remains relatively low which is assumed to be because the herbicide has multiple sites of action.

However, resistance to synthetic auxins has been observed globally with 36 species being confirmed as resistant as of 2017. Best management practices, such as alternating with products with a different mode of action and using cultural weed control methods, will help to reduce the risk of further resistance.
