The California Department of Pesticide Regulation approved Intelligro’s hybrid selective herbicide, Civitas WEEDfree Brand concentrate. This product is now available in all U.S. states.
“Civitas WEEDfree Brand Concentrate is a product that lawn and landscape professionals can get excited about because it is effective, resourceful and affordable–something that up until now many products have not been able to achieve,” said Reinie Drygala, global sales manager, Intelligro. “These professionals can have confidence in how it works and feel good about doing more with less.”
When used as directed, the specially formulated solution controls more than 60 listed broadleaf weeds without harming lawns and with no offensive odor, the company said.
Its Microtechnology is designed for absorption into the weeds, which allows for fewer active ingredients without reducing efficacy. Users will begin to see visible injury on weeds within 12 hours of application, Intelligro said.
“Approval in California signifies this solution has met some of the strictest environmental requirements across the United States,” said Judith Guido, chairwoman of Guido & Associates, a consultant to Intelligro. “With Californians’ insatiable desire for year-round outdoor living, in conjunction with their relentless demand for sustainable products, Intelligro’s Civitas WEEDfree Brand Concentrate will be a clear winner.”
