Effectively kills most lawn weeds including the problem weeds such as Black Medick, Lesser Trefoil, White Clover and Common Mouse-Ear

Pre-diluted, ready-to-use selective weedkiller spray that controls most broad-leaf weeds with one application without harming the grass. Use on all established lawns and grassy areas in late spring or early summer. Weeds will wilt, turn brown and die within 4-6 weeks. Verdone Extra Ready To Use removes the competition and allows grass to thrive and spread. This spray contains 3 different selective weedkillers to give easy control of most common lawn weeds including dandelions, daisies, white clover and plantains.
There are a host of other plants with smaller leaves that are less easily controlled with ordinary lawn weedkiller treatments. That’s where Verdone Extra Ready To Use scores because it gives good control of many problem weeds such as lesser trefoil (yellow suckling clover), black medick (a small leaved clover), common mouse-ear chickweed, yarrow, parsley-piert and the blue flowering speedwell.

Use on leafy weeds that are actively growing between April and September. For best results do not mow for 3 days before or after application. Do not treat new lawns until they are established for at least 2 months.
Frequently asked questions
Does it harm the grass?
No. Verdone Extra is a selective lawn weed killer only targeting broad leaved lawn weeds. Always read the label and apply in accordance with instructions.
How does it work?
Verdone Extra is a hormone weed killer, it affects the growth hormone on broad leaved weeds, encouraging them to grow at a fast rate which they cannot sustain, causing the weeds to literally grow themselves to death!
When can I use it?
Verdone Extra targets the growth hormone of broad leaved weeds, therefore needs to be applied to weeds which are actively growing between April and September.
Is it safe for children and pets?
All our products adhere to strict pesticide safety legislation and when used in accordance with the instructions do not pose a threat to children and pets. Once the spray has dried, children and pets can return to the treated area.
Is it safe for grazing animals?
There is no real need to restrict access to a lawn treated with a Verdone Extra when used as directed on the label, unless there are poisonous weeds such as ragwort, buttercup etc present. Grazing animals will avoid eating these weeds in their natural state. However once the weed starts to die (be it from use of a weed killer or naturally), changes in the way the weeds taste may make them more palatable and they may be eaten by mistake. It is these dying weeds that cause the risk to grazing animals. Where this type of weed is present, or if you are unsure if toxic weeds are present, we recommend keeping grazing animals off the area until the weeds have died and have their remains have been physically removed.
How long does it need to become rain fast?
For best results a period of 6 hours should elapse before rain fall.
How do I apply it?
Apply at the rate recommended on pack, spray weeds enough to cover the leaves but not to the point of surface run-off.
