The Star of the Show:

Correspondent Andrew Craghan meets up with Greg Wallace from Suncor, to talk lawn weeds and how to control them with a “reduced-risk” herbicide. Greg explains how most people “overspray” when using herbicides, rather than following the directions. They think it will kill the weed more effectively, when in fact it will not, and it contributes to too much herbicide contamination. Greg shows how to properly use Clear Choice™ weed control and explains why it is effective. Environmental stewardship and using a reduced-risk herbicide effectively work together for a better environment and great–looking lawns.

Get Rid of Weeds For Good

With spring around the corner, and lawns coming to life again, many homeowners put getting their lawns in good shape at the top of the list. Who doesn’t want to achieve the look of a velvety green expanse in their front and back yards?

Yet, here they come again – all those weeds, the ultimate lawn spoilers. You thought you had them under control last year, or even last week, but they keep coming back no matter how much you spray or how many you pull out.

Along with trying to control the weeds, many are aware that spraying may be harmful to lawns, gardens, and the environment. How do homeowner’s fight the weed problem and be kind to the planet at the same time?

Weeds can be kept at bay with a Suncor Energy product called Clear Choice, an eco-friendlier lawn care herbicide that kills weeds without harming your lawn. Clear Choice is a convenient, easy-to-use reduced-risk herbicide that uses micro-technology.

What exactly is micro-technology?

• making droplets very small so they penetrate in to the weed more effectively

How does this benefit your lawn?

• Improves penetration into the weed, getting down to the root
• Results in higher rate of weeds killed overall
• Uses less herbicide to get the job done, no need to overspray

Clear Choice is powerful enough to kill over 60 broadleaf weeds, which should keep any type of weed in any part of the country away for good, so you can finally achieve the lawn you’ve always wanted.
