FAQs

How does Roundup Super Concentrate kill tree stumps?

It's a systemic weed killer. When applied to the fresh cut surface of a stump, it's absorbed by the plant's vascular system and translocated down to the root system, killing the entire root network to prevent regrowth.

What kind of plants can I use this product on?

This product is effective on tough, unwanted woody and herbaceous plants including tree stumps, roots, brambles, nettles, and persistent weeds like Japanese Knotweed. Always refer to the product label for a full list and specific application guidelines.

Is it safe to replant in an area where this product has been used?

Yes, the environmentally friendly formula fully degrades in the soil, leaving no harmful residue. This means you can replant with confidence in the treated area once the unwanted plant has died and been removed.

How many tree stumps can one 250ml bottle treat?

One 250ml bottle of Roundup Super Concentrate Tree Stump and Root Killer is capable of treating and eliminating up to sixteen individual tree stumps, depending on their size and the application method.

How long does it take to see results?

As this is a systemic product designed to kill roots, results are not instantaneous. You can expect to see visible effects such as wilting and yellowing over several days to weeks, leading to the complete death of the plant over time.

Do I need to dilute the concentrate, and how?

Yes, this is a super concentrate and must be diluted with water before use. Always refer to the product label for specific mixing ratios, as these can vary depending on the type of plant you are treating and the application method (e.g., stump treatment vs. foliar spray).

Can I use this product on my lawn?

No, this product is a total herbicide and will kill most plants it comes into contact with. It is not selective and should not be used on lawns or other desirable vegetation as it will cause damage or death.

What safety precautions should I take when using this product?

Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) including chemical-resistant gloves, eye protection, and suitable clothing. Avoid skin and eye contact, and do not inhale spray mist. Keep children and pets away from treated areas until dry. Read and follow all safety instructions on the product label.

Troubleshooting

Plant not dying or regrowing after treatment.

Ensure the correct dilution rate was used as per the label for the specific plant type. Check if the application was thorough and covered all necessary surfaces (e.g., entire cut stump surface, sufficient leaf area). Re-apply after the recommended interval if necessary, ensuring conditions are optimal (no rain within hours of application).

Desired plants are accidentally damaged.

Immediately rinse affected desirable plants with plenty of water. In the future, take extra precautions during application, such as shielding nearby plants with plastic sheets or cardboard, and avoid spraying on windy days to prevent drift.

Product appears to be separating or clumping in the bottle.

This is unlikely for a well-formulated product. If observed, gently agitate the bottle to mix. If separation persists or if the product does not mix properly with water, consult the manufacturer or the point of purchase.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup and Preparation

  1. Read the Label: Always begin by thoroughly reading the product label for specific dilution rates, application instructions, and safety precautions. Dilution rates vary based on the target plant and application method.
  2. Dilution: As a super concentrate, this product must be diluted with water before use. Use a clean sprayer or applicator. For stump treatment, a higher concentration is typically used. For foliar applications, a lower concentration is common. Refer to the label for precise ratios.
  3. Safety Gear: Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including gloves, eye protection, and suitable clothing, to prevent skin and eye contact.

Compatibility

  • Compatible Plants: Designed for use on a wide range of unwanted woody and herbaceous plants, including tree stumps, roots, brambles, nettles, and Japanese Knotweed.
  • Incompatibility: This product is a total herbicide. Do not apply to or near desirable plants, lawns, or areas where you intend to grow desired plants immediately. Overspray or drift can cause severe damage or death to non-target vegetation.

Product Care and Storage

  • Storage: Store the concentrate in its original container, tightly closed, in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and frost. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
  • Disposal: Dispose of unused product and empty containers according to local regulations. Do not contaminate water sources when cleaning equipment or disposing of waste.
  • Equipment Care: Thoroughly rinse application equipment with water after use. Do not use the same equipment for applying other garden treatments (e.g., fertilizers, fungicides) without proper, exhaustive cleaning.
