😂. "Look at that dandelion looking at me". That was unintentionally funny,

1st

Glad u doing ok brother

Awesome video, Pete!!

Can you tell me who made that scraper?

I use weed clear mostly and tenacity for hard to kill weeds. Working well.

Triclopyr General Fact Sheet What is triclopyr? What are some products that contain triclopyr? How does triclopyr work? How might I be exposed to triclopyr? What are some signs and symptoms from a brief exposure to triclopyr? What happens to triclopyr when it enters the body? Is triclopyr likely to contribute to the development of cancer? Has anyone studied non-cancer effects from long-term exposure to triclopyr? Are children more sensitive to triclopyr than adults? What happens to triclopyr in the environment? Can triclopyr affect birds, fish, and other wildlife? What is triclopyr? Triclopyr is a man-made herbicide used to control both broadleaf and woody plants. It was first registered in 1979 for use in forestry and it is used in both agricultural and non-agricultural settings. Certain products may have limited use for campsites, roadside applications, and some ornamental lawns. Always read the label for your product's use sites and instructions..1 Broadleaf weeds often controlled with triclopyr include nettles, docks, brambles, and woody plants. Triclopyr is a selective herbicide, meaning it only controls certain types of plants. Grasses tend to be less sensitive to triclopyr than other weeds.2 What are some products that contain triclopyr? There are over 200 products containing triclopyr.3 Many of these products have other active ingredients in addition to triclopyr. Products may be ready-to-use, concentrated liquids, granules, or mixable powders. Products with triclopyr can be applied aerially or by ground application. They may be applied on tree bark, injected into tree trunks or soil, or sprayed on plant leaves.4 Products with triclopyr may have acid, salt, or ester forms. These forms tend to behave similarly in terms of toxicity and their movement in the environment.5,6 Triclopyr is commonly used on pastures and rice. It is also commonly used for turf, landscaping, and lawn care.1 One type of triclopyr (a salt form) can be used on aquatic weeds.7 Triclopyr is not allowed for use in certified organic production.8 How does triclopyr work? Triclopyr is a systemic herbicide. It affects actively growing plants by mimicking a specific type of plant growth hormone, known as an auxin.9 Plants rapidly take in triclopyr through leaves and roots. It causes uncontrolled plant growth and plant death.4 After absorbing the herbicide, plants die slowly (within weeks).10 How might I be exposed to triclopyr? If you are in an area during or shortly after application, you could contact it, breathe it in, or get it in your eyes. Most triclopyr incidents that were reported to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) from 2000 to 2014 involved homeowners who were mixing or applying products.11 While accidents can happen, following label instructions and taking steps to minimize exposure can help reduce risks. If any exposures occur, be sure to follow the First Aid instructions on the product label carefully. For additional treatment advice, contact the Poison Control Center at 800-222-1222. If you wish to discuss a pesticide problem, please call 800-858-7378. What are some signs and symptoms from a brief exposure to triclopyr? The salt form of triclopyr can cause permanent eye damage. The ester form of triclopyr may cause eye irritation. All forms of triclopyr were low in toxicity on the skin.5 Rabbits had some skin irritation when exposed to triclopyr for 24 hours.12 The salt and ester forms are dermal sensitizers, meaning after multiple exposures there could be signs of allergic reactions.5 Triclopyr is low in toxicity if inhaled.5 Rats that inhaled moderate doses for four hours had teary eyes and salivation.12 If eaten, triclopyr is low in toxicity.5 Rats showed signs of lethargy, teary eyes, and shallow breathing after eating large doses of triclopyr.12 What happens to triclopyr when it enters the body? Triclopyr is not absorbed well through the skin. A study with rabbits measured that 1.5% of a dose was absorbed through skin. In a study with human skin, it was estimated that less than 2% of the dose was absorbed.5 Triclopyr residues were measured in fat, ovaries, livers, and kidneys of rats that had eaten triclopyr.5,12 The EPA sets tolerances, which are legal limits for the amount of triclopyr that can be in milk and other animal products.13 Triclopyr mainly leaves the body in urine.5 Within 24 hours, 93-94% of a single dose eaten by rats was excreted.12 Is triclopyr likely to contribute to the development of cancer? More studies may be needed to determine if triclopyr exposures could be linked to human cancer risks. The EPA has determined triclopyr is "unable to be classified as to human carcinogenicity."5 There is only weak evidence for breast cancer in female rats and kidney tumors in male rats.5,7 Tests show triclopyr is unlikely to damage genetic material.5 Has anyone studied non-cancer effects from long-term exposure to triclopyr? Triclopyr is moderate in toxicity over long-term ingestion exposures. Rats fed moderate doses of triclopyr for 90 days had changes in their kidneys. Parts of kidneys that filter salts and vitamins from the blood were affected. Dogs fed moderate doses for a year had changes in their blood, liver function, weight gain, and kidney weights.5 Studies show that dogs were more sensitive to triclopyr than rats when fed triclopyr over longer periods of time.7 Results of one study suggest that it may be more difficult for dogs to excrete triclopyr compared to other animals.14 Always take steps to minimize your pets' exposure when using pesticides. Triclopyr is low to moderate in developmental toxicity and moderate in reproductive toxicity. When moderate doses of triclopyr were fed to pregnant rabbits everyday for 13 days, some pregnancies were lost and there were changes in fetal skeletal growth. Similar effects were seen when high doses were fed to pregnant rats for 10 days.5 In another study, two generations of male and female rats were fed triclopyr daily for 10 to 12 weeks before mating. There were fewer offspring and more lost pregnancies in both generations.5 The EPA has not tested triclopyr for endocrine disruption potential.15

9 : 55 what he's trying to say is that all liquids when sprayed a % of it (15 to 30 depending upon the drop size, the wind and the heat temperature. if you make it a mist then closer to 75% becomes fog) becomes aerosol and where ever the breeze takes it ( there is always wind even if you can't feel it on the hottest dryest days round up will prove to you where the wind was drifting that day on every plant within 30 feet. further out it's going to be spots or discoloration from typical such as yellowing or light green on a dark green plant. tan or brown is dead, that part of the plant just got killed. this is exactly why you can't spray at all around evergreens they can't even handle just a puff without it going thru a large section of leaves and killing alot. )

Great video. I made one of these out of a box scraper. I did alot of testing with it and realized mounting the draw bar with a pintle hitch on the 3pt worked best. This way I could adjust the angles of the rear blades of the box by raising or lowering the 3pt from the cab. Can be seen on DotyBirdBuilds.

I have been looking for a video how to attach to the drift guard (I recently bought from you) with the quick connect piece that it comes with to a standard sprayer?

Are the small grassy plants in your beds monkey grass?

Looking at the Scott's Wizz spreader. Amazon good reviews, Scott's website not so much. Any issues with your Wizz spreader?

You’re a good dude.

I’m with you Pete my skid steer experience was in a bobcat with foot controls.

Pete thank you for this if I don’t have briars growing through my azaleas it’s trees. I’m ordering the foam applicator when it comes back in stock.

Glyphosate and Triclopyr mixed together is amazing for killing ground ivy and just about anything else. 👍

Foam applicator is so easy to use and works amazingly well

I have the flow zone 2 1/2 gallon adjustable and on the low power it still has too much power

What sprayer are you using for your round up

This is gonna be kinda long, but I wish I had weeds in my beds, instead I’ve got neighbors cats using my beds for a toilet. No chemicals needed just a good ole live animal trap! I’ve been knocking them out here lately, atleast 1 a week. Animal control has got where they hate to see me pull up! Hate it for the owners but I’m sure they wouldn’t like me taking a dump on their dinner table either. So I’ve got a customer that has a bunch of rentals, one that is a work in progress is right behind her personal house. This house has more ivy than you can shake a stick at. She mentioned that it was killing the trees. Some of those oaks have been there since the civil war as this house is in direct line of travel to Kennesaw Mtn here in Ga. So I told her I could kill off the ivy and she said go for it price is no problem. So I got my chainsaw and my brush cutter and went to town! Their were ivy vines growing up in these oaks that were 2 1/2 inches in diameter. I’d cut a section out of the vine and some of those vines had a crazy amount of tension on them. So I cut a ton of the ivy of the trees and brush cut the stuff on the ground and hit it with the glyphosate and it killed the heck out of it. She was more than happy. She said she had been trying to kill that stuff for 10 years. Where the soggy spot is in your beds from detailing your cars what you can do to repair that is dig a vertical drain. Dig down 3ft or more if possible and line the hole with landscape fabric and fill the hole with gravel and cover the top with fabric and put a couple inches of dirt back on top. I had to do this for another customer of mine that had a severe low spot in his yard with no way to get fall for drainage. Thanks for the great info you put out. Thanks Again!

👍👍

For the algorithm! Best uncle I've never had!

Thanks for weed control video! I need a DRIFTGUARD if I can find one. What is the MSO mix ... what should I mix together?

Snapshot works for months. Almost a full season when applied in March/april.

As usual Pete, lots to take in , thx for taking the time to help us all out Brother!! Its Appreciated!!! I have used plenty of the tips you give the past 3 yrs. Lost the back yard to fungus last year due to the rains here in chesapeake Va & the lack of knowledge in the fungus dept, however my front lawn with the TTTF / Texas Bluegrass is on absolute Fire!! Killing off bk yard here soon to prep for round 2 in fall....btw....Didnt you mention starting a channel for those Mustangs lol...T/C God Bless!!

That’s funny, I have quietly literally spent the past two days dealing with my parents over grown forests in their flower beds, then just found this video

I bought the foam applicator 2 or so years ago. Not long after you first showed it. That is absolutely an amazing way to control weeds in beds. I have not found a weed it would not kill. I absolutely love it!!

The vine looks like invasive Kudzu. Stay on top of it or it will kill the bush/tree. I also use the drift guard. Bought it from GCI because a quick disconnect was included.

How did the foam affect that vine?

CASE is a good machine. I had a 21 TV450B and it was awesome regarding the power, but I will say the Ventrac paid for the CASE, so I don't have the skid anymore.

That setup with a laser or gps receiver and electronic solenoids would be ideal for a ball field and large yard.

Thanks Pete, your videos are worth GOLD! 🙌🏼

Skid steer usage!

That’s a nice machine Pete and that top dresser is perfect for top dressing the turf

Looks good Pete

You probably don't need to shake that bucket as much as you do. That is hard on components.

Where you get the dirt? Do they have a sand compost mix?

well done

That thing is the bomb diggity! Way to get more our of it than what was intentioned without compromising the machine or the warranty! Git it!

I love that new machine I was just on their website the other night before you posted the video of your new machine , but I’m just a homeowner and couldn’t justify spending that amount of money for something I’d use once maybe twice a year,

Great job Pete. I love that you have a very resourceful mindset. I'm a DIYer but I am really enjoying the Pro channel. Keep the content coming.

Need one asap!

Great content, channel, love the results! Pete you are the man sir!

Them tires look like they need some attention on the trailer 😂

In case it rains, you know where the wiper button is. Not gonna lie, that part was funny. 😂

Thank you for creating this channel and posting this one! Love the work and hope to be doing some work like you in the future!

A “tow motor”? WTH lol never heard that one. Had a buddy that called them lift sticks though.😂

Enjoy your date boss man!!!

Great video
