xAtticus Empero Nutsedge Killer
Atticus Empero Nutsedge Killer is a granular weed control product designed to tackle tough nutsedge in lawns and ornamental turf. Formulated with 75 percent halosulfuron methyl, it targets the weed at the source, helping to reduce visible growth while reaching the deeper roots and storage tubers that drive ongoing infestations.
Key benefits include strong root system reach, broad turf compatibility, and a straightforward mixing process that makes it practical for regular lawn care. The product is gentle enough for established warm- and cool-season grasses such as bluegrass, fescue, Bermuda grass, and zoysia, making it a versatile option for landscapes with mixed turf.
How Empero works
Empero travels from the leaf surface into the root zone, aiming to interrupt the weed’s growth cycle at multiple levels. It is designed to provide top-to-bottom control of nutsedge when applied according to label directions and under suitable conditions.
- 75 percent halosulfuron methyl provides the active weed-killing foundation
- Root and tuber penetration targets the storage organs of nutsedge
- Compatible with common turf types including warm and cool season grasses
- Rapid-dissolving granules support fast, thorough mixing
- Allows re-entry after spray dries for flexible outdoor use
- Developed to withstand unpredictable weather; rain after 4 hours won’t immediately wash away the treatment
How to apply
Mix 1 level scoop of Empero with 1 gallon of water and add 2 teaspoons of a surfactant per gallon of water. Stir until fully dissolved to ensure even coverage across the treated area.
Apply as a spot or broadcast treatment, ensuring the target areas receive thorough coverage. Avoid mowing or heavy rainfall on the day of application if possible, and always follow label instructions for safety and performance.
Practical notes
- Re-entry is allowed once the solution dries on the leaf and soil surface
- Ready for rain after 4 hours, though longer dry spells may improve uptake
- Not available for sale in Alaska or Vermont
- Always read and follow the product label for the best results
In real-world use, gardeners and landscape pros report cleaner patches of lawn where nutsedge once grew, with less visual competition from the weed. Results depend on conditions such as lawn health, moisture, and sun exposure, so think of Empero as a tool that can help, not a guaranteed outcome.
