Barrier H controls Ragwort to the root in record time
Barrier H herbicide is an innovation in Ragwort control, destroying this deadly weed in record time, right through to the root. Barrier H can be applied at all stages of growth. Unlike any other spray, Barrier H can be sprayed onto flowerheads only to stop the seeding process straight away. Ideal for Councils, Highway Authorities and Network Rail faced with complaints from neighbouring landowners.
This environmentally friendly and effective all year round control for Ragwort, is sold as a ready to use spot spray in a 5L container with applicator gun. Within hours of application, small rosettes are dead - right through to the roots.
Barrier H will destroy ragwort at all stages of growth and any time of year, but it is more cost effective to treat when at small seedling stage. Larger plants, especially flowering plants require much more Barrier H because the whole of the plant has to be covered. 5L of Barrier H is enough to treat up to 1600 tiny seedlings and up to 110 flowering plants or large rosettes and so it is more cost effective to treat when Ragwort first appears. Winter application is a good time to apply Barrier H because Ragwort is easily visable. Traditional weeds and grasses die back and Ragwort seedlings and re-growth from older plants appear. Ensure the whole plant is well wetted but not to the point of run off. This especially applies to large flowering plants - the WHOLE plant has to be wetted.
Exclusion From Grazing
Ensure that you apply Barrier H to the whole of the Ragwort weed. After application, keep animals away from treated pasture for 2 weeks, or until the ragwort is completely dead and any debris (with more mature plants) has been removed. This is not because Barrier H is in any way harmful, but, because the dying ragwort becomes palatable and dangerous to animals. Remember the root is the last part of the plant to die, so be careful not to remove any dead tops too soon.
Cutting or Pulling: Time spent digging, cutting or pulling often results in encouraging the spread of Ragwort. Tiny pieces of root left behind can lead to the growth of bigger and stronger plants.
