Vitax SBK Tough Weedkiller, Kills Down To The Roots, Suitable For Brambles, Nettles, Dock, Woody Weeds, Hardwood & Tree Stumps, Targets Weeds Not Grass, Concentrate - 250Ml, Coverage 83M2

Perfect weedkiller for killing dock weeds. I was a bit put off by some of the bad reviews on here but then realised a lot of them were expecting results in hours/days. It takes a good 3-4 weeks to have a result. This product essentially causes the weeds to "overgrow" themselves to death, faster than they can physically survive (As seen in progress by the red spots and curling leaves) which at first may seem counter-intuitive but it's effective for deep roots. If you're patient enough to wait more than a few days for a result, this is the best and most cost effecient selective weed killer you can get.

I have rated this product four stars the reason for this is that the brambles are still thriving!. It took over 3 weeks before i saw any results with applying the formula twice within this period. I managed to dig out a small off shoot by the roots and placed them in a bowl held with a rock then sprayed furiously over the roots and leaves, this part of the bramble is definitely dead. The larger chunk i sprayed the foliage as directed but sadly this still thrives. I'm now trying to manage my expectations of this product, it works but not as well as i had hoped, slow to kill in my experience but at least it took out some of this invader. I guess the jury is still out I have lots of this left so planning my next attack when the weather prevails.

I have a perennial horsetail problem in my lawn. I even glyphosated the entire lawn, put down weed membrane, new top soil, glyphosated again. Reseeded again and new lawn established. 4 months later Horsetail was back with a vengeance. Not sure if landscaper conned me with the membrane or top soil, but either way I'm back to square one. Tried this stuff as dedicated horsetail treatments are either expensive or kill grass. This is both cost effective and ok with grass. Apply, (I used a pump spray) and leave. I reapplied when it rained. Took a few weeks but horsetail is mostly dead. Do not mow until horsetail is dead as it could be spread, and bag/dispose of clippings and clean mower deck to prevent mower spreading the horsetail further. It'll probably be back next year but at least I have a simple and effective solution.

have to say this product is one of the most effective ways to get rid off Mares tail weeds , using the Vitax Sbk brushwood killer ,and great for overgrown bramble bushes, and very animal friendly to, highly recommend the product to others that are having problems with the above mentioned ,would say value for money in getting this product

Great product , but arrived having leaked . Not the best item to leak

Very good,..dose what it says on the box,I sprayed it on driveway,....killed all the nasty weeds, ....

A long term faithful for many years for my father, son and me! Great on nettles, saplings, etc. With recommended dilution, it is not as costly as it might initially seem!

It’s quite slow to work but it does the job I had a hop vine that took over everything and I’m using it on that Strangely it doesn’t kill grass !

He usado este producto antes y siempre la trabaja bien, aunque a veces necesita dos dosis.

Tenía varios tocones de paulownia que volvían a brotar una y otra vez, y este líquido fue mano de santo. Lo apliqué con brocha justo después de cortar y en pocos días se acabó la batalla. Eso sí, no te descuides: donde toca, arrasa. Mejor con guantes y precisión de cirujano. Después de tanto probar, este ha sido el único que realmente pone fin al problema.

didn't work

good product

Certainly worked for me
