Plant Withholding
There is no plantback period stated on the label, however triclopyr does have some residual life in the soil, so beware when sowing sensitive plants eg clover.
|
| Stock withholding |
Stock Withholding No withholding period applies, but where poisonous plants such as Tutu or Ragwort are present stock should be kept out until those plants have died down to prevent selective grazing.

A herbicide used to control broom, gorse and other brushweeds
Safe to grass species and is most commonly used where pasture damage is not desirable
Used during late spring, summer and early autumn providing brushweeds are actively growing
The key benefit of Eliminate is it's safety to most grass species. At brush weed rates it is damaging to clover. Eliminate has good grass safety making it suitable for use as a spot treatment in both new and established pastures or situations where maintenance of grass cover is preferred. The product shows dramatic twisting effects on target species within a few days of application.
A short half life in the soil will allow eventual re-establishment of clovers.
