Doff Advanced 1 litre spray is a ready-to-use systemic weedkiller containing glyphosate, designed for highly effective control of both annual and deep-rooted perennial weeds. This powerful weed killer destroys most weeds right down to the roots, including stubborn varieties like grasses, docks, nettles, willow herb, and dandelion. It can also be used to prevent cut trees and stumps from re-sprouting and effectively kills tough weeds, climbing ivy, and brambles. A key benefit is that the product breaks down naturally in the soil, allowing for future replanting.

Directions for Use

How to Use

• Prepare: Shake the bottle well before use to ensure the contents are thoroughly mixed. Adjust the spray nozzle to the desired setting (usually a fine spray).

• Application: Spray the product directly onto the leaves of the weeds you wish to kill until they are wet but not dripping.

• Targeting: Take great care to avoid spraying desirable plants, as this weedkiller is non-selective and will harm or kill any plant it contacts.

• Drying: Allow the product to dry on the leaves without washing off for maximum effectiveness.

• Re-application: One use is effective for most weeds; however, another application may be required after 3 to 4 weeks on very stubborn growth.

Where and When to Apply

• Usage Areas: Can be used in a variety of outdoor settings, including gardens, patios, driveways, paths, fences, and allotments.

• Timing: Apply the weed killer on a dry, calm day when rain is not expected for at least 6 hours. This ensures the product is absorbed effectively.

• Wind: Avoid spraying in windy conditions to prevent drift onto desirable plants.

• Safety: Keep out of reach of children and pets.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• Q1: How long does it take to see results?

  • A: Visible effects usually appear within a few days, though full weed kill down to the roots may take longer, especially for deep-rooted perennial weeds.

• Q2: Will this product prevent weeds from growing back?

  • A: The systemic action kills the existing weed and its roots. However, new weeds will germinate from seeds in the soil over time.
