How Sprinter 700DS works
Sprinter 700DS contains 700g/L 2,4-D in the form of a soluble concentrate. Sprinter 700DS is absorbed mainly through the foliage of the plant and is translocated to the root and shoot growing points providing a more consistent kill. It interferes with cell division and elongation, causing twisting, swelling, brittleness and plant death. Plants need to be actively growing for Sprinter 700DS to achieve effective kill. It is best of avoid spraying during cold, frosty conditions.
Some poisonous plants (e.g. ragwort) may become more palatable to stock when sprayed, so stock should be kept away from the area until the plants have died down.
