Sonar RTU Label and Instructions

When is the best time to treat with Sonar RTU?

It is best to apply Sonar RTU early in the season when aquatic weeds begin growth.

Can I use Sonar RTU to spot treat weeds growing in my pond?

No, Sonar RTU is a whole pond treatment. This should be applied throughout the entire body of water.

How does Sonar work?

The active ingredient in Sonar is fluridone. After the Sonar is applied to the pond, it spreads throughout the whole water body. Sonar is absorbed through the plant shoots. Once absorbed into the plant, it stops the formation of carotene, which is needed to transmit energy absorbed from chlorophyll. In the absence of carotene, plants begin to turn white. Begin noticing results in 15-30 days. Complete management of weed species in 30-90 days.

Aquatic Weed Treatment Instructions:

Sonar RTU requires no mixing, and no spraying. Shake bottle of Sonar RTU and pour into one spot of the pond. It is not necessary for weeds to be sprayed directly with Sonar RTU. Pond should have very little flow through for at least 30 days so that the treatment is not diluted.
