In a world of pesticides that is marked by reduced offerings and stricter rules - Hammer from Everris offers something a bit different and, dare we say…...exciting?
Hammer is a unique systemic weedkiller that combines Glyphosate and Pyraflufen-ethyl for a dual action on a wide range of weeds, including; chickweed, mayweed, cleavers, thistle, couch grass, nettle, bramble and rosebay willowherb amongst others.
What is special is the initial knock-down. The Pyraflufen inhibits the enzymes in the weed that it needs for photosynthesis and the weeds will show visible signs of application within 24-48 hours – usually faded colour and wilting . This will stop the plant growing, stop it seeding and importantly make it very clear to customers that an area has been sprayed.
The glyphosate, meanwhile, will continue to work into the weed going to the growing points in the roots and shoots to block the acids the plant needs for growth.
Hammer now has approval to be spot sprayed on hard surfaces so block paving, commercial car parks, industrial areas can now be treated and begin to show signs within a day. It is rainfast in 6 hours, the application rate is variable and a 5L bottle will cover a wide area up to 11,700m2. Priced on a par with leading glyphosates, it offers a convenience and broad-spectrum weed kill that is rare to find for most landscapers and horticultural experts.
