Aquacide Pellets with 2,4-D are a selective, root killing, systemic herbicide. Controls submersed, emersed, and floating weeds. For use in ponds, lakes, reservoirs, bayous, drainage ditches, non-irrigation canals, rivers and streams that are quiescent or slow moving. Great around docks, boat hoists, swimming beaches and shorelines. 

Easy to apply.

Marble-size Aquacide Pellets sink directly into the weed bed, visibly expand over a period of several hours to a day, and stratify a layer of herbicide where the weeds grow. Herbicide is released slowly in controlled amounts. As weeds grow herbicide is absorbed through leaves, stems and roots. Herbicide absorption is quite rapid, just a few hours under good growing conditions. Once absorbed, the herbicide moves throughout the weed to the growing parts of leaves and roots. Growth at these parts is halted and the weed dies.  Kills the entire weed roots and all. Initial effects occur in 7 to 10 days. Initial effects include brittle stems and curling leaf tips. Under optimum conditions full weed kill occurs in 3 to 5 weeks. Dead weeds sink to the bottom and decompose.

 

Effective on many common weeds.

Aquacide Pellets are effective anytime susceptible weeds are actively growing. When applied in spring and early summer, less material is required, less dead weeds occur and a longer weed free period will result. Successful applications can be made in late summer and fall to actively growing weeds.  The full effect of late season applications may not be fully evident until the following season.

Early season applications to perennial weeds, such as Common Cattails or Water Lilies, while growing below the surface, may require 3 to 4 lbs. per 1000 sq. ft. at a 4 foot depth.  A second application, at the appropriate rate, may be necessary in 3 to 5 weeks if weeds show signs of recovery.  Heavy clay, mud, or silt build up may reduce root absorption by effectively sealing the roots.  Early season application or more than one application may overcome this problem. Water movement in the form of currents or bottom springs may wash the herbicide from the treatment site, reducing effectiveness.

The most comprehensive up to date review of 2,4-D is contained in the EPA re-registration eligibility decision for 2,4-D. This document states; "2,4-D has a reputation as a selective and economical means to remove invasive plants, enhance the growth and recovery of desirable native vegetation, restore water quality and improve fish and wildlife habitat."

As a rule of thumb Aquacide Pellets will be effective on weeds with leaves that have a laced or branched vein structure. Aquacide Pellets will usually not be effective on weeds with leaves having parallel veins such as Grasses.

Aquacide Pellets are easy to apply.  Nothing to mix or spray. Simply broadcast pellets uniformly over water surface with a fanning motion of the hand.  Similar to sowing grass seed.  Effective at any depth.

Tried and true.

For submersed weeds use Aquacide Pellets at a rate of 1.0 to 4.0 ppm active ingredient.  This is equivalent to 15 to 60 pounds of Aquacide Pellets per acre-foot of weed volume, or 5.6 to 22.4 pounds of Aquacide Pellets over 4,000 sq. ft. at a 4 foot average depth.
For spring to early summer application to new weeds use 1.0 to 2.0 ppm.
For mid-summer to fall applications to mature weeds use 3.0 to 4.0 ppm.
To determine pounds of Aquacide Pellets to use per 1,000 sq. ft.:
(application rate in ppm) x (average depth in feet) x (0.35)
To use 2.0 ppm at an average depth of 4.0 feet:
2.0 x 4.0 x 0.35 = 2.8 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft.

Avoid churning water in treatment site for 72 hours following application.  This will help insure maximum herbicide is available for absorption by the weeds.

Great for Sensitive Skin
Color: Non-Tinted, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
My face has always been sensitive to sunscreens, so I have to be careful with what I use on my face. (Others can cause burning sensations). This sunscreen is great. I had no issues, and unlike other sunscreens, sweat running didn't cause my eyes to burn or water which was great. Keeps my skin protected against the hot Florida sun, so it works!

And the crowd goes mild
Color: Tinted, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I had heard such great things but I’m really left a little disappointed. I got the light tinted version, and it’s much darker than anticipated. And the smell is not great. It kind of smells like my grandpa’s trailer and not in a nice, nostalgic way. As a sunscreen though, I have no complaints. The protection is great and at the end of the day that’s what I really need out of this.

Such a great new product from Sun Bum
New product from Sun Bum - love it! I gave it a try after getting a bit too much sun on my arms and chest at a soccer game and it worked great. So soothing and calming. Takes the sting off right away and reduces the redness. This will become a staple in my bag for me and the kids this summer.

Good after-sun spray
The pros: We have used this a couple of times after getting more sun than we wanted, and it seems to work as advertised. It has a cooling feel to it, and seems to soothe the skin well. It's not greasy and it absorbs well -- I didn't notice I had it on it after initially putting it on. It doesn't have a glow or shine to it. It also has a very minor fragrance -- not one that's noticeable. The size is great; you can take it with you on vacation and even put it in your carry-on. Perhaps most important, I am glad for the more natural ingredients involved -- ones that aren't toxic. The cons: It's a little expensive, as most sun bum products are. And it seems to work well, but I feel like aloe works similarly.

Great Hypochlorous Spray!
I love Sun Bum and I regularly use hypochlorous acid in my skincare routine, so I was stoked to try this! First, I have sensitive skin that’s prone to redness, dryness, and acne. Hypochlorous acid has been a godsend on days where I need a toner step but my skin doesn’t want to tolerate anything. Hypochlorous acid is also great for acne healing and prevention. On top of all of that, it’s good for general skin healing so this can definitely be used on the rest of your body wherever your skin may be irritated (please use common sense here lol). There’s no scent which is great and exactly what you’d want in a hypochlorous acid spray. The way it feels is comparable to magic molecules hypochlorous acid spray, which is what I’ve been using until receiving this one to try. It’s like a very watery toner. The spray itself is a fine mist and doesn’t feel like getting blasted in the face lol. It takes maybe 30 seconds to a minute to dry down after spraying a few sprays on your face, just depending how dry your skin and climate are. It’s a great base for literally any other skincare and it’s also a great refresher to spray on top of other products during the day. It really does it all. As far as value, I will say even though the price is comparable, you get more with magic molecules. I’ve included some photos to compare the bottle size. While I’m thrilled to try this for free, I don’t think I would repurchase unless it was on sale/better value than the MM version. It is a cute little bottle and looks good with my other skincare, just in case that’s something you care about. The bottle is fully plastic - no glass. Some may prefer that and some not. I find it really easy for chucking in my bag/traveling. I haven’t noticed any issues with leaking although I truthfully haven’t traveled with it that much. I’m giving this 5 stars because it’s a really solid choice for a hypochlorous acid from a great brand and it’s sensitive skin friendly!
