This potent herbicide is perfect for clearing overgrown areas or reclaiming paths, though users should exercise caution to avoid spraying desirable plants, as it is a non-selective killer.

FAQs
Can I use this on my lawn?
No, Vitax SBK is a non-selective weed killer and will damage or kill the grass in your lawn.
How long should I keep pets away from the treated area?
It is best to keep children and pets away from treated areas until the spray has completely dried.
Will this kill tree stumps?
This product is primarily designed for foliage-based woody weeds; check the label for specific instructions regarding stump treatment.
What happens if I accidentally spray a garden plant?
Immediately wash the plant with plenty of water. Depending on the amount sprayed, some damage may still occur due to the systemic nature of the product.
Can I plant new flowers in an area treated with SBK?
Wait at least 6 weeks after treatment before replanting, or until the soil is clear of the herbicide residue.
Is it safe to use near ponds?
No, you must avoid spraying near water sources, as the product can be harmful to aquatic life.
Troubleshooting
Spray nozzle is clogged or not spraying
Rinse the nozzle tip with warm water to clear any dried chemical residue.
Weeds are not dying after one application
Tougher woody weeds may require a repeat application; ensure the foliage is fully wetted and that the weed is in an active growth phase.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This product is ready to use directly from the bottle. Ensure you wear protective gloves during application to prevent skin contact. Do not spray on windy days to avoid drift onto your prized flowers or shrubs. Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place, keeping it well out of reach of children and pets. Always check that the nozzle is set to the 'spray' position before use and return it to 'off' immediately after finishing to prevent accidental discharge.
