How to Add a Recommended Dose of Fungicide

Fungicides are used to kill off weeds, aggressive plants, and harmful mosses.

Fungicides are used to kill weeds, aggressive plants, or plants that simply will not die off by simply pulling them up. Most fungicides are poisonous so it is important that you do not let the fungicide make contact with your skin or eyes, as well as keeping it away from your lips so you do not ingest it. Mixing the ratio to apply the recommended dose is imperative for keeping your lawn healthy, and your body and family safe.

1. Read the label on the back of the fungicide. This will show you the mixing ratios for the fungicide.
