RioMist Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Is there any place in Thailand where they supply a selective weed killer for lawns? If you know where I can contact supplier that would be very much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RioMist Posted May 20, 2017 Author Share Posted May 20, 2017 Do they sell it in Home Pro? I have tried many places in Phuket but they don't seem to stock weed killers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monsanto is now marketing heavily in the US, RoundUp for Lawns with some of these a.i.'s, instead of glyphosate. But be careful if there are trees and shrubs around. These are systemic herbicides that can be taken up by roots, and are notorious for causing leaf and twig distortions and discoloration at the least, dieback and mortality at the worst. If there are trees anywhere nearby, the absorbing roots will likely be present, unseen in the lawn area where they seek water and nutrients. The absorbing roots can extend much farther from the tree trunk than you would expect, sometimes two or three times the drip-line of the foliar canopy or more.

notrub Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Roundup is also held responsible for many allergic reactions suffered by those near to where it is used. In Canada and the US is is used by local authorities and this has been challenged in the courts. Roundup company uses it financial and political (read paid for) weight to continue to supply these public bodies in spite of the proven health hazards that accompany its use. Be careful if you use it and look out for children playing on the lawn and older folk resting nearby. Dangerous stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried many places in Phuket but they don't seem to stock weed killers Sorry havent replied for while. Got it from the local seed and garden shop. Believe it is used by the farmers to kill weeds in the rice paddies. Had no effect on my good grass and its 100% weed free. The packet has no english so you will need someone to translate the instructions for use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RioMist Posted June 5, 2017 Author Share Posted June 5, 2017 Thanks for the info Overhere.. My gardener will be here today will ask him where in Phuket sells this stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notrub Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 is pyrazosulfuron ethyl safe to use? Has it anything to do with roundup type herbicides? We live in Isaan and in the middle of a rice growing area. I see farmers spraying but don't know what. I am not particularly susceptible to chemicals but should I be careful about this stuff?

I did see the gardener use a mask when spraying the grass with this. We dont let the dogs on the grass except for a while at night for feeding but we did keep them off for a couple of days after spraying with this. Keep the spray close to the ground and try to do on a non windy day is all I can suggest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bastco Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Would you be able to give me the amount of Sirius (pyrazosulfuron ethyl) you mixed with water ( grams per 20 litres) to use as a spray to control weeds in your lawn or give me contact details to the shop you purchased it from.
