Great herbicide
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this herbicide for my fescue lawn. I used this to kill the variety of weeds I had prior to overseeding my lawn this fall. It worked great. My lawn is looking amazing now. I highly recommend this product for broadleaf weed control

    Worked some
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Spectracide Weed Stop for Lawns Concentrate has given me some positive results. I used a hose with an adjustable nozzel to control the amount of water I used. I used very little water with the concentrate. I tried this product on my back flower bed, and I have some positive results. Not as much as I was hoping for though. The last two weeks, there has been a lot of rain. Maybe that may be the cause why it is not working efficiently. I will continue to use Spectracide Weed Stop for Lawns Concentrate in hopes it does work effectively on my flower bed.

      Great weed killer
      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is so easy to use and really works well. It comes ready to use. Just hook up to a water hose and squeeze the handle. Works on all weeds and you will see a difference in about two weeks. Highly recommend!

        Weeds Be Gone!
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Are you looking for something to kill weeds in your yard but not the grass? Spectrum Brands H&G Spectracide Weed Stop for lawns is a concentrated weed killer for over 460+ broadleaf weeds including clover, chickweed, and dandelions. Also, it works on poison ivy, tree stumps and vines to name a few. It comes in a 32 FL oz. bottle with bright yellow sprayer with a white QuickFlip to turn the sprayer on and off reminding me of a Fireman's water hose. It's very simple to use this product by connecting your water hose to the yellow spray head. The water mixes with the weed killer liquid as you're treating your lawn. This product shouldn’t be used when the temperature is over 85 degrees because your lawn may get damaged. The best way to spray the weeds is at a 45 to 90 degree angle since the products kill on contact and weeds roots. In the instructions it does say the best way to begin spraying the weeds is a few days after mowing your yard. I mowed my lawn and waited 2 days before using the weed killer. TIP: check your weather channel and make sure you're not expecting rain for at least 24 hours after applying. It was very easy to use with my water hose. It’s not too heavy to carry and I have carpal tunnel in my wrist and hands. I noticed within 3 hours of spraying weeds were wilting. Be patient, because most areas in my yard took up to 3 to 4 weeks which it states on the product. I did not let my dog go outside till the next day because it states not to let pets in the lawn while wet. Keep in mind this is a pesticide so keep children and pets away. Do Not spray on your flower bed, vegetable garden, and any fruit trees. I was happy with the results and you only apply this product in the spring and fall. #WeedKillerForLawns #SpectracideSmart #lawn #reesetisha #reesetishas2cents @spectracide @reesetisha

          Works but smells bad
          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Was able to hook to our hose easily. Sprays far, we were able to go our whole yard in about 15 mins (our yard is small). Weeds did appear to be dying the next day. My only complaint is the awful scent- it Smells like rotting fish

            My poor grass!
            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product states it won’t harm lawns when used as directed — kills more than 200 types of weeds as listed. Unfortunately it didn't kill the weeds we sprayed, or the poison oak as we hoped. Our poor grass is dying slowly, also. It is supposed to help control dandelion, chickweed and clover, plus a lot more with hopes of seeing results in just 24. It is also said to be rainproof, but after it rained the next day, the stream from the rain where we sprayed has left a trail of dying grass. Which breaks my heart. The container is easy to use, and like the fact it locks when not in use. I just Unfortunately had a bad experience with the product.

                  This Weedstop does a great job of killing the groundcover so the grass on my land can grow. The groundcover and other weeds begin to die shortly after this is applied. Works great.

                    Weeks ago I was looking for a product to control the weed on my back yard. After review all the products at the store I decided to buy this one (Two bottles). I applied as per the instructions and one week later the result is't a disaster. The grass is burned as a result of the application. I returned the bottled that I did not use but the damage is there. (See the pictures)

                      Still regretting the purchase!!
                      My lawn used to be the ENVY of the neighborhood. Then I decided to use this product. It killed my lawn in 75% of the yard. The sad thing is that now the lawn has thinned out and the WEEDS of course are back three weeks after the application and stronger than ever. Simple things as Dollar-weed (normally controlled by any weed control) are proliferating all over along with ones initially killed by the treatment and are now making a come back. I am now left with the dilemma of not being able to apply anything else because of the week state of my lawn and the weeds are having a field day on my yard. Stay Away From This Product!!! I should have used Bayer as I have before with good results. Let my self be lured by the low price, BIG MISTAKE. And of course, their only guaranty is to return your lousy $7.00. My lawn is ruined and it will cost more than that to replace. Never again will I buy a product from Spectracide!! Hope this review saves someone the same problems I have had.

                      Killed Grass
                      Bought this and sprayed on my St. Augustine grass to kill some weeds. A few days later all my grass where I sprayed was dead. I am not an expert in lawn care but when something says safe for southern lawns and will not harm grass one would think it would be fine to spray. Terrible product and should be taken off the shelves!!!

                      Works Every Time
                      I've used this product for over three years. In the early Spring the weeds start growing much sooner than the grass. Weed Stop kills off all the growing weeds so the grass can grow when its time. I also use it during early summer when milk weeds try to take over patches of my front and back yard. I read a number of negative reviews and I will add this. I hand pull the medium to large because it takes a long time for this product to work on large hardy weeds. Also a good solid rain will pretty wash away the product. Those large weeds can recover after a good rain. I use this product along with a natural fertilizer and corn gluten (for the grassy weeds). The combination does a great job.

                      grass dead, weeds flourish
                      Applied product twice in spring, 3 weeks apart, as directed. Now grass (Empire zoysia) is patchy brown and weeds grow like crazy. It did kill dollarweed and chickweed though, everything else grows like never before - except the actual lawn. Very disappointed.
