HOW DO Roundup
®
BRAND PRODUCTS WORK?
The way Roundup
®
works is the key to its remarkable efcacy and
popularity. All Roundup
®
brand products contain the active ingredient
glyphosate, which targets an enzyme found only in plants, not in people
or pets. When you spray the formula on a weed’s leaves, it is quickly
absorbed by the plant, then travels right down to the root to kill the
weed. Some Roundup
®
brand products contain other active ingredients.
See product labels for details.
How do I properly apply Roundup
®
brand products?
Always read and follow label instructions before you start spraying. If you’re using Roundup
®
Weed & Grass Killer,
spray the weeds on the leaves, not the soil. The formula enters the plant’s system via the leaves and travels through
the plant’s circulatory system into the roots.
People and pets can re-enter the treated area once the spray has dried. This will help you avoid tracking it to
unintended areas like your lawn.
If you’re using Roundup
®
Extended Control Weed & Grass Killer Plus Weed Preventer, just spray the weeds you
have and the places where you don’t want weeds to appear: the cracks, seams and crevices in your driveway, patio
and other paved and gravel areas.
Roundup
®
brand products kill weeds and grasses, so don’t use them to treat weeds within your lawn.
