FAQs
How quickly will I see results?
Visible results, such as wilting and browning of weeds, can typically be seen within hours of application, especially under warm and sunny conditions.
Is this product safe for use around pets and children?
The active ingredient breaks down naturally in the soil and is glyphosate-free. However, it is recommended to keep pets and children away from the treated area until it has dried completely and to store the product securely out of reach.
Can I use this on my patio?
Yes, this product is designed for permeable patios, meaning patios with gaps or surfaces that allow water to drain through. Do not use on solid, non-permeable surfaces.
How do I dilute the concentrate?
Refer to the specific dilution instructions on the product packaging, as ratios can vary. Generally, you will mix a small amount of concentrate with a larger volume of water in a watering can or sprayer.
What should I do if I accidentally get it on my skin?
Wash the affected area immediately with plenty of soap and water. If irritation persists, seek medical advice.
How long do the weeds stay controlled?
The duration of control depends on factors like weed regrowth and environmental conditions. Reapplication may be necessary for complete, long-term control of established weeds.
Can I use this product on my lawn?
No, this product is specifically formulated for gravel paths, driveways, and permeable patios. It is not intended for use on lawns or other desirable garden plants.
What does 'Packaging May Vary' mean?
This indicates that the external packaging of the product might differ from what is shown in images, but the product itself (Weedol Path & Gravel Control Concentrate) and its contents remain the same.
Troubleshooting
Weeds are not dying after application
Ensure the product was diluted correctly and applied directly to the base of the weeds. Check if weather conditions (e.g., heavy rain immediately after application) may have washed the product away. Reapply if necessary, following instructions precisely.
Product seems to be harming nearby desirable plants
Avoid application during windy conditions. Ensure you are not over-spraying or allowing drift onto plants you wish to keep. Rinsing affected desirable plants immediately with plenty of water may help mitigate damage.
Difficult to get an even application
Ensure the squeeze tube is not blocked. If using a watering can or sprayer, make sure the nozzle is clear and the mixture is well-agitated before and during application.
Concentrate is difficult to pour
Ensure the tube cap is fully removed. If the concentrate is very cold, it may be slightly thicker; slight warming might help, but do not heat excessively.
