About this file
This document details a comprehensive Herbicide/Insecticide Attachment specifying precise chemical compositions and product specifications for landscape and turfgrass treatments. The attachment lists five specific products: three landscape herbicides (two pre-emergent and one post-emergent), two turfgrass herbicides (pre-emergent and post-emergent), and one insecticide. Each product specification includes active ingredient percentages, inert ingredient percentages, precise chemical nomenclature, and recommended brand names or equivalent products, such as Gallery 75DF by Dow AgroSciences, Pendulum AquaCap by BASF, Roundup Pro by Monsanto, Dimension by Dow AgroSciences, Spoiler by NuFarm Americas Inc., and Mavrik Aquaflow by Wellmark Inc.
The technical specifications provide extremely detailed chemical formulations, including molecular structures and precise percentage breakdowns of active and inert ingredients. Each product is described with its specific application context (landscape or turfgrass), concentration levels, and technical characteristics like grams per liter or pounds per U.S. gallon. The document appears to be part of a procurement specification that would allow potential contractors to understand exact product requirements and propose matching or equivalent chemical treatments for landscaping and pest control purposes.
