Control requires 2-3 weeks. May cause temporary phytotoxicity (7-10 days). DO
NOT tank mix with other pesticides or fertilizers as control will be reduced. DO NOT
overseed treated areas for at least 2 months after the last application.

bluegrass in non-overseeded putting greens, and d) spring transition of bermudagrass
overseeded the previous fall with cool-season turfgrasses. For tillered goosegrass,
make 2 applications at the high rate 7-14 days apart. DO NOT apply Revolver within
2 weeks of sprigging. Revolver is rainfast within 2 hours of application. Revolver
must be allowed to dry on bermudagrass foliage before traffic is allowed through
treated areas. Revolver is NOT recommended for use on creeping bentgrass greens.

bermudagrass greens in the late spring. Add a nonionic surfactant at 0.25% v/v.
Apply 10-14 days in late summer or early fall before overseeding bermudagrass. DO
NOT apply after overseeding, or to bentgrass putting greens. To hasten spring
transition on overseeded bermudagrass, apply at the 60-75% green-up growth stage
of bermudagrass, or approximately 2-3 weeks before transition is desired. Irrigate
within 2 hours of a TranXit application and then follow normal irrigation schedule.
TranXit is NOT recommended for use on creeping bentgrass putting greens.
