Non-Ionic Surfactant
Hi-Yield® Spreader Sticker makes almost all chemicals more effective by breaking down the surface tension of water. This breakdown causes water to disperse, giving complete and total coverage on surfaces. Hi-Yield® Spreader Sticker helps water to resist the repellent tendency of waxy surfaces and also helps water to penetrate through soil and organic matter.
Insecticides – Works with almost all Insecticides:
Gives complete leaf coverage, increasing absorption, increasing contact kill and creating a better, longer lasting residual control.
Coats adult insects to improve effectiveness on hard to control insects, such as Grasshoppers, Stink Bugs, Squash Bugs, etc.
Helps to penetrate and adhere to webs of Tent Caterpillars and Bagworms.
Helps drenching products to penetrate the soil and adhere to the roots to increase absorption.
Herbicides – Works with almost all Herbicides:
Gives complete leaf coverage, increasing absorption, increasing contact kill and creating a better, longer lasting residual control.
Must be used with ferti•lome® Over-the-Top, ferti•lome® Weed-Out Nutsedge Control , Hi-Yield® Grass Killer, and Hi-Yield® Triclopyr Ester.
Fungicides – Works with almost all Fungicides:
Gives complete leaf coverage, increasing absorption, increasing contact kill and creating a better, longer lasting residual control
Fertilizers – Works with almost all fertilizers:
Gives complete leaf coverage, increasing absorption, increasing contact kill and creating a better, longer lasting residual control.
Increases the penetration and adheres the fertilizer to the roots for better absorption, thus making it work better.
Avoid Use With:
Do not use Hi-Yield® Spreader Sticker with the following products
X ferti•lome® Weed Free Zone– this product is “HOT” enough already and you may burn portions of the yard.
X Any Oil Products such as ferti•lome® "Green" Label Horticultural Oil or Hi-Yield® Dormant Oil, also ferti•lome® "Green" Label Neem, ferti•lome® "Green" Label Triple Action, ferti•lome® "Green" Label Fruit Tree Spray, and ferti•lome® Fire-Blight Spray
X Soaps such as ferti•lome® "Green" Label Copper Soap, ferti•lome® "Green" Label Spinosad Soap and, ferti•lome® Weed-Out Nutsedge Control and finally Hi-Yield® Dusting Sulfur.
Do Not Use Dish Soap! Dish soap is ionic so it can react with the chemical, it also leaves a sticky residue and most soaps have de-greasers that burn plants, often faster than the chemical can work.
Skip the detergent
Do not use dish soaps or detergents to control insect or mite pests. Dishwashing liquids and laundry detergents such as Palmolive, Dawn, Ivory, Joy, Tide and Dove are primarily designed to dissolve grease from dishes and cleaning clothes and not to kill insects and mite pests. Furthermore, these materials contain coloring agents, perfumes, and degreasers that may cause plant injury (phytotoxicity) by dissolving the waxy cuticle on the leaf surfaces. What is most important is that these materials are not registered pesticides as they do not have an EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) number. So technically it is illegal to use these detergent products as pesticides.
