Composition: 
75%
Trifloxysulfuron Sodium
Activity Group: 
Sulfonylurea
Formulation: 
wettable granules
Mode of action: 
Inhibition of acetolactate synthase ALS (acetohydroxyacid synthase AHAS)

Growth of susceptible weeds is inhibited soon after application of Monument 75WG. The leaves of susceptible plants normally turn yellow, red or purple after several days, followed by necrosis and death of the growing point. Complete plant death occurs 1-3 weeks after application, depending upon weed species, growing conditions, etc

Monument 75 WG is a selective herbicide applied after the emergence of weed for control of certain weeds in established turf. Monument 75 WG consist of water dispersible granules the must be thoroughly and uniformly mixed in water and applied as spray. The degree of control resulting from application of Monument 75WG is dependent upon weed species, weed size at application, environmental conditions, amount of Monument 75Wg applied, and growing conditions. Weed control is greatly improved when weeds have emerged.

The active ingredient in Monument 75WG, Trifloxysulfuronsodium is an acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibitor herbicide that has been developed by Syngenta for post-emergence weed control in bermudagrass and zoysiagrass turf.

Legal warning

 Caution

Re-entry Period
  • Don't enter or allow worker entry into treated areas for 12 hours

Hazard Statements
  • Harmful if absorbed through skin. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, or clothing.
  • For terrestrial uses: Do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark.

Precautionary Statements
  • If on skin or clothing • Take off contaminated clothing. • Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15-20 minutes. • Call a poison control center or d octor for treatment advice. If in eyes • Hold eye open and rinse slowly and gently with water for 15-20 minutes. • Remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5 minutes, then continue rinsing eye. • Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice.

Personal Protective Equipment
  • If you want more options, follow the instructions for Category A on an EPA chemical-resistant category selection chart.

Other Restriction of Use

Monument 75WG can potentially move with excess water and by turf equipment and foot traffic onto sensitive turf species such as ryegrass and bentgrass after application. Do not apply product close to these sensitive turf species. Do not apply product on saturated soils or severe slopes. To reduce potential movement, water-in lightly 2-3 hours after application to remove product from turf foliage before resuming normal irrigation practices. Allow turf to dry before allowing traffic onto treated areas. • Monument 75WG may cause temporary discoloration of St. Augustine and reduced growth rate. • Do not use on turfgrasses other than those listed above (unless listed under weeds controlled) or severe injury may result. • Do not apply to newly seeded, sodded or sprigged turfgrass. Delay applications for at least 4 weeks after sprigging, seed emergence, or sodding. • Allow at least 3 weeks between last application and overseeding with cool season grasses for winter cover.

Tank mixing

Refer to Label for further instructions

Tank mix preparation

Make sure the sprayer is clean and set to give an even application at the correct volume and an even deposit.

Implementation particular terms

Always use constant agitation of the sprayer tank during mixing, transportation and application.

Mixing and spraying

Clean the spray tank before using. If it is contaminated with other materials, mixing problems and/or clogging may occur, or injury to the turf may result. 2. Prepare no more spray mixture than is required for the immediate operation. 3. Fill the spray tank 1/4-1/2 full with clean water and begin agitation. Make certain that the agitation system is working properly and creates a rippling or rolling action on the water surface. Maintain agitation throughout the mixing and spraying process.Liquid fertilizer may replace part or all of the water as carrier. The application of Monument 75WG using liquid fertilizer as the carrier may increase the herbicidal activity on certain weeds and decrease tolerance of desirable turfgrass species. This combination should be tested to determine safety of Monument 75WG and liquid fertilizer before treating large areas. 5. Add any products packaged in water-soluble film to the tank first. Allow the packets to completely dissolve and the contents of the packets to fully disperse into the mix water. Important: Water-soluble packets must always be the first material put into the spray tank after water. For products packaged in water-soluble packaging, do not tank mix with products containing Boron or mix in equipment previously used to apply a product mixture containing Boron unless the tank and spray equipment has been thoroughly cleaned. (See Instructions for Cleaning Spray Equipment After Application). 6. Add the required amount of Monument 75WG to the spray tank while maintaining agitation. Allow the product to wet and thoroughly disperse into the mix water. 7. While maintaining agitation, continue filling the spray tank. When the tank is 3/4 full, add any tank mix partners. Add any water-dispersible granule or other dry formulation first, and allow that material to disperse. Then add any emulsifiable liquid formulation.
