Killing the nutsedge!
Doing what it's supposed to do - kill the nutsedge, and not mess with the other grass. Was very easy to mix up and spray. This was after only one application in early June, now about 2 weeks later. Will probably do one more application on some of the areas I didn't get all the way. So far really happy! I have tried other premixed/ready-to-use brands from local stores in previous years and never had any luck. Very glad I tried this!

Much better
It works. It's much easier to use as you can measure out the exact amount rather than being restricted to one size fits all packets.

Lawn looks great after use
This is the second time ordering this item & it works just as well as a more well known brand. This killes all of the nutsedge in my yard and my lawn consistent with the grass that's supposed to be there. This stuff works

Not effective for me
Hasn't touched the nutsedge in my yard. Followed the mixing instructions to the letter and sprayed the weeds directly as well as several feet around it. I waited a few weeks and doubled the concentration and sprayed again, and not only has it not killed any of the existing nutsedge, new nutsedge is popping up in the sprayed areas. I guess I will go back to the Othro premixed spray, I was hoping this would be a more economical option, but its not working for me.

Very Satisfied
I had never heard of Nutsedge until this spring after moving into a new neighborhood last November. When mowing season came around, I noticed something in the yard that looked like grass but grew very quickly… Nutsedge. Three days after mowing, it would be 2 or 3 inches higher than the surrounding turfgrass. It was also growing in the pine needles around my shrubbery and in my monkey grass.I began pulling it out of the shrubbery beds. After about a month of this, I saw on a YouTube video that this was actually Nutsedge, and that pulling it was an absolute ‘no-no’ because it comes back with a vengeance.Empero is designed to kill Nutsedge. It’s a knock-off of SedgeHammer, has the same chemical make-up and is a little cheaper.It worked well for me on the Nutsedge, but I was careful to use it as instructed by the YouTube videos I found. The videos cautioned that it would not be effective unless used properly.I waited several days after mowing so I could identify the Nutsedge since it had grown taller than the surrounding grass. I used a pump-up tank sprayer to spot-treat where needed. After spraying, do not mow again for at least 2 days… I waited 3 or 4. According to the instructions, Empero is rainproof after 4 hours.It takes about 4 days, but the Nutsedge will slowly begin turning yellow and stop growing. It will eventually die but may take 4 or 5 weeks after spraying. The Empero did not damage my turfgrass or the Monkey grass in my shrubbery beds.I followed the mixing directions of 0.9 grams per gallon of water and added a little dishwashing liquid as a surfactant. Mixing as directed, the 1.33 ounce bottle will make about 40 gallons of solution. After adding the chemical to the water, I used a paint mixer attached to a drill and stirred the solution for 2 minutes to dissolve the granules. I used almost the entire bottle spot-treating one acre of grass. The included pic shows the Nutsedge (which has turned yellow) 7 days after treatment and 3 days after mowing.I had good success with this product and would not hesitate to use it again.
