Perfect for my application
I had been doing a lot of research to try to solve my lawn problem, which is that I have a zoysia lawn that has been invaded by lots of unwanted grasses and weeds, especially bermuda grass (since that's so hard to get rid of). Proper use of selective herbicides is very sensitive to dosage, and after doing research, coming up with a mix, and trying it, I can say I've had great success.If you have this problem too, you've likely come across some research saying to use a mix of fusilade II and triclopyr. The surprising thing about this combo is that pure fusilade by itself may harm zoysia, but adding triclopyr (which by itself is a pretty strong herbicide) supposedly has some protective effect for zoysia. I don't know enough chemistry and plant biology to know exactly why this is true, but figured it was worth a shot.The issue for me was I was seeing online lots of varying information about quantity/concentration and ratio between the two. The confusing thing about many herbicides is the application directions typically are stated in terms of how many ounces to use per acre, which makes sense for agriculture, since they use large sprayers and have a pretty good sense of how much coverage they get per acre. But for a homeowner with lawn application, the question in one's mind is really: how much of this should I add to a 1 or 2 gallon handheld sprayer to a get an appropriate concentration?Across some info online, I found pretty large variations in both total concentration and ratio of the two, so I kind of averaged those out, went with a conservative concentration, and went with a lower ratio of triclopyr-to-fusilade. Below is my recipe for making 1 gallon:-15ml Triclopyr-5ml Fusilade II-5ml surfactant-splash of blue spray colorant (so you can see where you've sprayed)-gallon of water(I prefer metric measurement, and the dispensers on the bottles have markings in both ml and fluid ounces.)So this is a 3:1 ratio of T:F, while some recipes I came across online were greater than a 5:1 ratio. I have not done enough testing to say if this is "optimal" or not, but I can say two things about this mix: 1) my zoysia seems completely unharmed by this, and 2) it does a great job of killing bermuda and other lawn nuisances. Note it might take a week or two to see the results, so be patient. Be careful of overspray and never spray when it's windy, this could accidentally harm or kill other things you want (bushes, trees, flowers, etc.).

Really works
This stuff really works. I looked online and could only find exzema as a bad effect of it. Everyone said I'd need Round-Up to get rid of my black locust trees. They come right back when you cut them down. Worse! And the new growth is beautiful, but very thorny. Worse than roses. I brushed the cut ends and stumps with this and they're gone. You have to keep looking for new shoots, but they're gone.

Can you tell where I sprayed?
I've got plans for improving my yard later this year and decided to start with getting rid of weeds and creeping charlie.My one neighbor has embraced a weedy lawn which is fine but not what I want. So where we share a little side yard area, I sprayed my half. Pretty clear line you can see here! That whole area had been covered in clover/broad leaf weeds.The spray was super effective on all my weeds. I did one full yard spray and followed up with spot spraying a few weeks later. The creeping charlie has been harder to completely kill as expected, but I will hit it another time or two and maybe add some 2,4D with the next batch for a 1-2 punch.I also did basal stem spray treatment on some buckthorn of various sizes. Some at the maximum suggested stump thickness, others more brush like. Even though I just used water and not another suggested medium for that application, it seems to already be making a big impact just a couple weeks later. I see leaves dying in the middle of late spring growing season and hope to have dead plants in a few months.And best of all, I still have a fair bit left for treatments later this year/next. Really happy with how long this has lasted, I would have blown through a few expensive containers of hardware store herbicides by now.

Product works quickly and effectively
I used this product employing the hack and squirt method to eliminate the invasive Ailanthus trees (Tree of Heaven) that were growing in my wood lot. Within 10 days leaves started to show signs of wilting. The trees were dead the following spring.
