Review: Follow the literature included and have patience. It's worth the wait. - Pretty clear directions included with the bottle. It's a good idea to glove up and have Eyewear when using this. Respirator if you're using a sprayer that's high output where there is a chance for droplets being airborne. It'll make your skin tingle if you get it on your skin, but wash real good with warm soap and water and it's no big deal. A little dab will do ya. Follow directions on literature included and all will be well. This stuff is no joke, works wonderfully on those damned broad leaf weeds that are the size of saplings. I was skeptical because of the small amount of herbicide called for per each gallon of water. Also, give it a little time to work. You won't see results in hours or even days, like Shmound Grear by Blortho, give it a couple weeks. This stuff works from the inside out. But it'll do the job. Great post-emergent product. It says it will work pre-emergent as well, but I sprayed when the weeds were as tall as me (down with an injury for 4 months, wasn't able to do a lot of things, yard keeping being one). Once dead I was able to burn the weed stalks. Dead and dried in a couple weeks. Read literature also to make sure your target weed(s) are covered by this herbicide. It's wild how this product works. You can spray everything in sight, most will be dead but some will not be affected by this herbicide. Read your literature. Four things that I stuck by and it worked great. 1. Read and understand the literature included. 2. Application safety-suit up. 3. Follow directions on mixing ratio. 4. Patience- spray it but don't delay it. Five star product, two thumbs up. The maker of this product's name reminds me of a book we read in primary school. Atticus Finch if anyone is still reading the ramblings of a slightly mad man.
Review: This stuff is amazing - Portions of my mostly Centipede grass lawn were being overrun by crabgrass, spurge, and some kind of thin grassy-like weed that grows in bunches (I thought perhaps it was poa annua, but that supposedly dies off in the Summer, and this stuff definitely wasn't). I tried some lawn-safe weed killers from the big box store, but these did not help much (seemed to affect the spurge a bit, but the other weeds laughed at it). It got to the point where I was out on my hands and knees trying to manually dig out all these weeds (while also trying not to dig out the good grass that was interspersed), but I really felt like I was fighting an impossible and losing battle. Stumbled on to Tenacity (and this generic equivalent, Torocity), and the results have been astounding. After several rounds of applications over the course of a month or so, I'm finally getting an upper hand on fighting these weeds. The only downside is that it's not an instant kill, takes a few weeks. And before dying, the weeds turn white (about 5 days after application), which can look a bit funky in the yard. But saving me from many seemingly pointless hours digging up these weeds from the yard, it's worth it. Edit (about two months later): the crabgrass is completely gone, and good grass (again, of which there was a little bit scattered among the crabgrass) has filled in nicely. One small issue to note is that the markings on the syringe did not last very long... I suggest taking a knife and lightly carving in a notch at each increment (or just the one that you typically use for the size of your sprayer).

## Features

- TRUSTED PERFORMER: Torocity contains 40.0% mesotrione; the same active ingredient as the leading brand, Tenacity. For more than 20 years, mesotrione has been the trusted choice for effective weed control in newly seeded areas as well as established turf.
- FLEXIBLE APPLICATION TIMING: This double-hitter herbicide allows timing forgiveness with both pre- and post-emerge activity. Compared to pre-emerge only herbicides, Torocity widens the application window so you can stop new weeds before they start and take down the weeds you already have.
- BROAD-SPECTRUM WEED CONTROL: Torocity delivers powerful control of many broadleaf and grassy weeds, including crabgrass, ground ivy, clover, oxalis, and dandelion.
- IDEAL TURF RENOVATION PARTNER: Torocity is one of the few herbicides labeled for just-seeded Kentucky bluegrass, tall fescue, perennial ryegrass, and centipedegrass. Apply before seed germination to prevent weed competition and encourage new grass growth. Torocity may be used on new seedings, grass grown for sod, and established turf. Do NOT apply to Bentgrass, Zoysiagrass, and actively growing Bermudagrass. See label for complete list of tolerant turfgrass species.
- EASY-MEASURE TOOL INLCUDED: We took out the guesswork so you get the right rate – easily. Our pre-marked syringe highlights the exact amount of product needed per gallon of water. Torocity is activated by water, if rainfall doesn’t occur within 10 days of application, water the area with 0.15 inches of water.
- NOT AVAILABLE FOR SALE IN ALASKA, HAWAII, PUERTO RICO, OR VERMONT. Always read and follow label instructions.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I use a hose-end sprayer (like ortho dial n spray) with this?**
A: No

**Q: What effective does Torocity have on poa trivialis?**

**Q: Would this product be harmful to Raised Garden Beds?**
A: Torocity is only labeled for use in commercial and residential turf.  Limit drift when spraying near/around raised garden beds.

**Q: Can this be used for weeds in flower beds?**
A: I would not do that.  You may kill your flowers.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It really kills crab grass and nutsedge.
*by L***C on August 17, 2025*

It really kills crab grasses and nutsedges but slowly. I used 1.5x the recommended dosage and waited for 3 days to see the tip of these weeds turned white on the crab grass and yellow on the nutedges. It takes 10-15 days for the crabgrass to completely turned white and hopefully dies. In my case, a second application is needed on the bigger nutsedges to ensure they dont bounce back. There are mixed result on killing oxalis. The younger one turned white then died but the older one turned pink, flowered and seeding. It would be perfect if the formula can be improved to kill other common lawn weeds. The most important thing is that it does not kill my lawn grasses.
