Martin's AG LLC RM43 Weed Preventer

No, you should not use this product near desirable plants. RM43 is a non-selective, long-term herbicide that will kill or damage any vegetation it touches and can remain active in the soil for up to a year, preventing new growth.

RM43 becomes rainfast two hours after application. Once the spray has fully dried on the leaves, rainfall will not wash away the herbicide or reduce its effectiveness.

You should keep pets and children away from the treated area until the spray has completely dried. Once the surface is dry, it is safe for them to re-enter the area.

RM43 uses systemic action, meaning it is absorbed through the leaves and travels down to the roots to kill the entire plant. While you may see wilting sooner, it typically takes a few days to a week to see the full effect on tough weeds and brush.

This is a concentrated formula that must be diluted with water according to the label instructions before use. It is best applied using a standard pump-up or backpack sprayer to ensure even coverage over your target area.

Because RM43 provides residual control for up to one year, you should not plant anything in the treated area for at least 12 months. It is specifically designed for bare-ground maintenance where you want to prevent all vegetation growth.
