Hard water effect on horsetail control

The effectiveness of many weedkillers can be reduced by some of the ingredients being “locked up,” especially in hard water areas. We can help reduce this problem and maximise its effect on marestail by simply adding KPlus+ to the spray tank. Recommended safety clothing / PPE as follows: protective clothing (coverall), protective gloves, eye/face protection and respiratory protection.

Horsetail is often called marestail but this is more accurately an aquatic weed (hippuris vulgaris). The correct Latin name for horsetail is Equisetum arvense or ‘field horsetail’.NB: Kurtail Lawn is not approved for aquatic use.
Its root system is extremely vigorous and can grow very deep which is why it can regenerate after treatment. Cultural controls, such as digging or rotavating, will only spread and multiply the problem in the short term. Please phone us if you intend to build over treated areas...e.g., tarmac drives.
It is preferable to allow the horsetail/marestail weed to wither and die naturally before cutting or removing the weed. If this is not possible, then a minimum of 3 weeks should elapse before cutting or removing. Any horsetail/marestail growth that emerges after treatment will require respraying.
Spraying of marestail should not take place if rainfall is due within 3 hours (minimum), 24 hours is preferable for best results.
Horsetail is best sprayed when it is 6-8" tall (15-20cm) rather than when it first emerges.
Non-tallow amine formulation
Please read the label before use
It is often necessary to retreat the same area several times as distinct root fragments emerge over time and reach the target height for spraying (6-8")

Q: When is the best time to apply herbicide to horsetail?

A: The best time to apply herbicide is when the plant is actively growing, typically in late spring or early summer. This allows the herbicide to be absorbed and translocated to the rhizomes.

Q: Will mowing help with horsetail control?

A: Mowing alone will not control horsetail. It will simply cut back the above-ground growth, and the plant will regrow from its rhizomes. However, repeated mowing can weaken the plant over time, especially when combined with other control methods.

Q: Is horsetail a weed?

A: Horsetail, while considered a weed, has unique beauty and ancient medicinal uses. It's also used in organic fertilisers and may have antifungal properties.
