We have heard from Consumers that they have scheduled an herbicide treatment for the powerlines in Port Sheldon Township during the month of April.
As a follow-up to the clearing of trees and brush performed recently, a low-volume herbicide application has been scheduled for the powerline right-of-ways in Port Sheldon Township. The herbicide mix will be applied as a hand spray treatment, selectively treating re-sprouting new growth of trees and brush as needed throughout the right-of-way. Crop areas, gardens and residential mowed yard areas will be avoided. Herbicides that will be used are a combination of the following: Garlon 3A (active ingredient: Triclopyr), Milestone (AI: Aminopyralid), Escort XP (AI: Metsulfuron Methyl), Garlon 4 Ultra (AI: Triclopyr), and Stalker (AI: Isopropylmamine Salt of Imazapyr), with 85% to 94% water as a diluent.
Please keep people and pets off treated areas until sprays have dried. There are no restrictions on your use of the treated area after the material has dried on the plant.
