Specticle® G delivers up to 6 months of pre-emergent weed control with significantly less active ingredient than traditional herbicides. Powered by indaziflam, this advanced granular formulation creates a strong soil barrier that prevents over 90 grassy and broadleaf weeds from emerging — including annual sedges.

Designed for professional landscapers and serious property owners who want extended protection with fewer applications.

Why Choose Specticle® G?

  • Up to 6 Months of Control — Longer residual than most traditional pre-emergents
  • Controls 90+ Weeds — Including crabgrass, goosegrass, spurge, and annual sedges
  • Low Use Rate — Requires significantly less active ingredient than older chemistries
  • Granular Convenience — Easy spreader application

Where to Use

  • Established warm-season turf (Bermuda, Zoysia, Bahia, Buffalo)
  • Commercial properties, HOAs, and high-maintenance landscapes

Not for use on cool-season lawns such as Tall Fescue, Bluegrass, or Ryegrass.

Application Rate

2.9 – 4.6 lbs per 1,000 sq ft

  • Lower rates for shorter control or lighter weed pressure
  • Higher rates for extended control and heavy pressure
  • Do not exceed 200 lbs per acre per application or 400 lbs per acre annually

Timing & Activation

  • Apply before weed seed germination
  • Light irrigation or rainfall is required to activate
  • Avoid application to saturated soils

Important Use Notes

  • For over-the-top applications, remove granules from foliage promptly

Specticle® vs Traditional Pre-Emergents

  • Prodiamine / Dimension: Typically 2–4 months of control

Specticle® is ideal when extended protection and reduced application frequency are priorities.
