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.

Amazing, killed horse tail in two weeks, it all turned black. I am a landscape gardener and have never had a solution for this difficult weed so I am very pleased.

Easy to use & appears to have knocked back the Mares Tail it was intended for, so time will tell. All in all happy with purchase.

So far it’s been amazingly effective, just as I had been led to believe. The weed is brown and shrivelled now after one application although I realise it may take a few years to rid our garden of it totally. I have appreciated talking to someone on the phone, seeing the short videos and reading the information. The advice is thorough and personal. Thank you, it’s a great product for this particular problem.

Used it once and within two days it was dying back. Four weeks later, it has almost disappeared. I will give the area another treatment at the recommended six weeks and I believe that will completely eradicate it. My neighbour has the same problem and is delighted to have finally found a solution. Great product. It works.
