Herbicides
or surfactants for water treatment. Repeat treatment may be necessary if weed growth reappears. Avoid application or
drift onto crops or other desirable growth.
How it Works
Reward is a contact herbicide. Thorough coverage on the weeds is essential to ensure satisfactory control. Interferes
with photosynthesis.
Expected Results
Control of susceptible weeds generally occurs within 1 - 2 weeks.
Restrictions
Rainfall
:
None.
Grazing
:
Do not use treated water for at least 24 hours after treatment for swimming and animal consumption.
Fish Protection
:
To protect the fish in small lakes and ponds with a dense weed growth, treat not more than 1/4 to
1/3
of the area at one time, otherwise the dying weeds over a large area will cause a serious loss of oxygen which
may injure or kill the fish.
Human Consumption and Irrigation
:
Do not use for at least 5 days after treatment.
Environmental Precautions
Avoid application or drift onto crops, ornamental plants, lawns, grazing areas or other desirable growth. Do not
contaminate domestic or irrigation water supplies, lakes, streams and ponds.
Toxicity
Moderate acute toxicity. Acute oral LD
50
(
rats) = 886 mg/kg. Dermal: Low acute toxicity. May cause burns upon
contact with skin and eyes. Intake can cause kidney failure and liver damage.
Storage
Heated storage is required.
