Defendor Specialty Herbicide, A Unique Postemergence Broadleaf Herbicide for Turf

Defendor Specialty Herbicide provides early season control of unsightly dandelions, clover and other annual and perennial broadleaf weeds. This new postemergence herbicide can be applied at the same time lawn care operators make their first fertilizer and preemergence applications of the season, giving them a head start on broadleaf weed control and more flexibility when scheduling applications.

Defendor can be tank-mixed with Dimension 2EW specialty herbicide and applied at the same time lawn care operators are putting down the first fertilizer and pre-emergence crabgrass applications of the season.
