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 this product to deal with some horsetail that was growing through my decking. Undertook a couple of treatments over a 2 week period, and the horsetail has gone, at least in the immediate term. Seems to be a very good product.

Bought the products to combat Marestail which kept sprouting up through our block paving patio and has done for a few years after next door had work done in their back garden .Terrific results , about a month after application and no regrowth from then .Wife and I are over the moon because the Triffids as we called them were a pain in the rear .Would recommend these products to anyone having the same problem we had.

This is the second time we have bought this product. Beginning of year (2019) we got a new allotment very over grown, as soon as spring sprung so did the mares-tail a forest of it. We have done 3/4s of it as some is covered, within days it had drooped and in 4 weeks its gone brown and dying. We bought a second bottle due to the size of our allotment. Also other allotment owners are watching as they have it and many I have spoke to are impressed with the results.
