"Agrokiller" on guard of the site: instructions for the use of the herbicide

Agrokiller is a chemical herbicide preparation that helps to get rid of even bad weeds on the site. Approved by the Ministry of the Environment, sold in gardening shops without special permission.

General information

Agrokiller is a modern preparation, a pesticide of continuous action, which solves the problem of weeds even in neglected areas. Malignant weeds are easily destroyed by the active substances of this solution.

Agrokiller has many advantages:

• The herbicide does not affect beneficial crops through the soil. The solution can only cause damage to the above-ground parts if it comes into direct contact.
• After processing, the components in the soil do not poison useful crops; the crop can be harvested and eaten in the same season.
• The herbicide helps where other drugs of similar action are powerless. A single treatment of the site per season is enough.
• A wide range of storage temperatures and a long shelf life (before opening).

How to breed Agrokiller?

Only the correct preparation of the spray solution guarantees the result. It is forbidden to use a large concentration, otherwise the composition will become toxic to humans, animals and insects. It should be borne in mind that a weak solution will not cope with aggressive weeds.

How to breed Agrokiller - proportions:

• 40 ml of concentrate per 3 liters of water - for treating annual and perennial weeds;
• 30-50 ml per 3 liters of water - for removing woody shrubs and unwanted herbaceous vegetation;
• 30 ml per 3 liters of water - for treating the area under the lawn. For the destruction of malicious weeds, the concentration can be increased to 40 ml per 3 liters of water.

Solution preparation steps:

1. The spray container is one third full of water.
2. Next, the required amount of herbicide concentrate is poured.
3. The mixture is shaken thoroughly.
4. The container is filled with water to full volume and shaken again.

3 l of the finished composition is enough for processing 100 m².

Instructions for use

For Agrokiller to work, always follow the instructions for use on the package.

What the gardener needs to know before using the solution for the first time:

1. The diluted drug is distributed over the area by spraying. The bushes are not watered. A spray bottle with fine holes is used.
2. Spraying is carried out once, in rare exceptions - twice a year.
3. Timely processing is important. The drug is most effective on young plants in the growth phase. This allows the agent to penetrate the tissues faster and reach the underground parts. From the moment of flowering, the roots of the bushes are difficult to destroy.
4. The drug is sprayed over the area 3–5 days before sowing seeds or emergence of seedlings.

After 7-10 days, the weed begins to wilt. When the herbicide reaches the root system, the plants dry out. This usually happens after 14-30 days. After that, plant residues are completely dug up and burned or taken to a special place agreed with the environmental authorities. The same is done with the herbicide container.

Security measures

Protective suit, mask and gloves must be worn before gardening. In contact with the skin and mucous membranes, the composition can cause an allergic reaction and even severe poisoning.

What should be done in case of poisoning by Agrokiller:

1. Leave the treatment area, remove all protective equipment, provide fresh air.
2. In case of contact with eyes, rinse with plenty of clean water. Keep your eyes open.
3. In case of contact with the skin, gently remove the product with gauze or cotton wool, without rubbing. Then wash the affected part of the body with plenty of soap and water.
4. If the allergic reaction persists, go to the hospital.
5. If swallowed, call a doctor immediately, drink 2-3 glasses of activated charcoal water (1 g per 1 kg of body weight) and induce vomiting.

If the solution is accidentally spilled on the soil, sprinkle it with sand, then discard the contaminated part of the soil and dig up the area. Indoors, surfaces are treated with water and soap.

A continuous herbicide is dangerous for useful crops. In order not to damage garden plantings, when spraying the herbicide, they are covered with plastic wrap or fenced off.

Processing is carried out on a calm day - this is a prerequisite. With the air flow, herbicide particles can enter the foliage of garden crops, and the grower will be left without a crop. The permissible wind speed is up to 4–5 m / s.

Don't forget about the safety of beneficial insects. If an apiary is located next to the farm, warn the beekeeper about the start of processing 4-5 days in advance. Bees should be no closer than 2–3 km from the pesticide application site.

The shelf life of the drug is 5 years from the date of manufacture. After the expiration date, the herbicide cannot be used, it becomes ineffective.

Storage conditions must be observed so that the substance does not lose its properties. Store the packaging in a cool, dark place away from children and pets. Neighborhood with food and medicine is unacceptable. Storage temperature - from -15 to +40 degrees.

Opened packaging and ready-made solution are not subject to long-term storage; after use, the residues must be disposed of. Processing is carried out within 24 hours from the moment of preparation of the solution.

What could go wrong?

The main mistakes of gardeners in the use of "Agrokiller":

• improper preparation of the solution;
• long-term storage;
• watering instead of spraying;
• bad time of day or season for processing;
• unfortunate weather conditions;
• work on the site before the start of the action of the herbicide;
• ignoring security measures.

It is necessary to use the herbicide only in dry weather, as the rain will wash it off before it penetrates the plant cells.Consider the weather forecast: precipitation should not fall within 6 hours after applying the pesticide. The best time to kill weeds is early morning or late evening.

With the abuse of the drug, negative changes in the soil can occur. Agrokiller is used no more than once a season. If you water the soil with it, nothing will grow on it in the next few years.

Without herbicides, it is much more difficult to keep the site clean and safe for both beneficial crops and people and pets. The drug "Agrokiller", if all instructions are followed, will become a reliable assistant in such a difficult matter as gardening.
