Spray

Point the wand at the weeds and when ready to spray, flip on the switch. Apply thoroughly to the leaves, stems, and top of roots—complete coverage is needed for effective control. Flip off the sprayer switch in between weed treatments.

For larger weeds, split the root before application, then spray.

Spot-treat weeds across the lawn, making sure to spray weeds completely.

Do I need to reapply Dandelion Doom Concentrate?

Weed control will likely need to be repeated throughout the growing season. You may require reapplication if you don't completely spray the weeds, apply it outside optimal temps, or apply it in wet conditions.

How do I use weed control with other Sunday products?

Dandelion Doom Concentrate is made to work with other Sunday lawn products, custom plans, and other Sunday products. When applying with other products, let it dry completely before doing anything else to the lawn.

For best results, use in combination with fertilizer and grass seed. This will help you feed properly, reduce weeds, and introduce better grasses to your lawn.

How and where do I store weed control?

Store this product upright with the cap closed tightly and the wand set to ‘off’. Do not store in excessive heat or freezing temperatures. If you store for a while, shake the mixture before use for best results.

Helpful tip: You may reuse weed and pest control over multiple seasons so hold onto your pouch and wand sprayer!
