How Proshield works:

This long lasting weed killer works because it contains two very useful active ingredients glyphosate and diflufenican.

• Glyphosate – The glyphosate works by moving through the targeted weed (translocation) right down to the roots – being absorbed via the leaves. The results are a quick rapid knockdown and a kill to the roots as well as the foliage. 
• Difuflenican (DFF) – This works by being extremely hydrophobic. which means it adheres to the soil surface and forms a chemical barrier. This barrier prevents the weeds from germinating and further regrowing. 
• Proshield can be used as a cost effective alternative to Pistol Total Herbicide – containing the same active ingredients of 40 g/L diflufenican and 250 g/L of glyphosate

Application notes and guidance:

• Use post-emergence to control a wide range of annual & perennial broad leaved weeds and grasses
• Apply at any time, however weeds must be growing actively.
• Best results are achieved when the target weeds are small
• Apply using a medium to fine spray, in dry non-windy conditions
• Ideally do not apply in the heat of the day, or when rain is forecast as this may affect your weed kill results
• Do not add any wetting agent or wetting oil as this may result in reduce the products effectiveness
• Do not apply if plants are stressed – i.e under drought conditions or waterlogged as reduced levels of control may result
• Avoid drift onto non-target plants, this includes: leaf surfaces, young bark or suckers of valued plants. As this can result in permanent damage or death of nearby plants

Recommended safety clothing / PPE as per the MSDS; protective clothing (coverall), protective gloves, eye/face protection
