Controlling marestail / horsetail with SBK and KPlus+
It is highly recommended that you use the adjuvant KPlus combined with SBK to enable the triclopyr to break down the silica outer layer of the horsetail and increases its ability to penetrate into the weed achieving greater results.
For marestail/horsetail control, it may be necessary to retreat several times to eradicate the extensive underground root system.  Once applied, do not cut or roll the treated weed.  Allow the plant to wither and die completely before removing dead plant material.

Bought the product to kill a bad infestation of Horse Tail on my new allotment. Previous products only partially worked. First application of SBK with a sprayer was only partly successful because the addition of KPlus thickened the solution to a degree where a fine spray couldn't be achieved. However about 35% of the weed died off so a second application with a fine rose watering can (with (KPlus) was more successful and another 40 - 50% appears to be dying. A third application may be necessary but it will be worth it if it kills the weed permanently.

Used to treat marestail in grassed areas. Very good - within a few days weeds started to die and blacken all the way to the ground. Hopefully with several treatments the marestail will be killed outright.

I applied the product about 6 weeks ago and all the marestail weeds have been obliterated. I am very pleased with the product and the result.

If you have a problem with mares tail - use this product twice in a week as stated . Then the pesky weeds die off! Seems to be the only thing that kill this weed!
