Protection Guide for Turfgrass
Integrated Pest Management for Turf
An updated version of the Protection Guide for Turfgrass, is now available on the OMAFRA website. This publication lists crop protection products registered for turfgrass as of December 1, 2014. A big part of managing turf is knowing which crop protection products to use. This publication is a great resource for sod farmers, golf course superintendents, lawn care operators and sports field managers. This publication, along with Integrated Pest Management for Turf, provides a complete reference package on turf IPM for Ontario.
So I have a question on the Protection Guide document.
Tables 4-1 to 4-4 contain descriptors that indicate âHerbicides registered for use on sod farmsâ¦..â
In the Turfgrass renovation section, Table 4-5 doesnât seem to have any limitations on use. Ie. It is not limited to sod farmsâ¦â¦.
Can the two herbicides listed in table 4-5 be used by a certified landscape exterminator for residential lawn renovations?
Thanks
Hi Tony. Please refer to the list of pesticides that are banned for cosmetic use on the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change (MOECC) website http://docs.files.ontario.ca/documents/4325/class-9-pesticides-march-27-2015.pdf
I would advise you to please contact MOECC to discuss this further at 1-855-515-2759.
Thank you
