WiseUp!
Bio-Weed Control

 
 

WiseUp!™ Bio-Weed Control™ is an extremely effective colloidal green chemistry herbicide. This is a new approach to weed control that uses a colloidal suspension to penetrate into a weed leaf. This breaks down the plant’s protective waxy coating into billions of little particles, which denatures and kills the weed. WISE Up! Bio-Weed Control can be used in conventional hand and commercial sprayers.

Made from 100% renewable source materials, Wise colloidal products are safe for users and safe for the environment. This product will not adversely affect soil or water systems. There is no adverse affect on humans.

Technology Highlights

Our products are created using colloidal green chemistry that enables the use of natural plant extracts to deliver breakthrough solutions that have only recently become available.

The colloidal chemistry creates sub-micron sized particles called micelles which give our products vastly superior performance.  Unlike traditional acetic acid formulations, which tend to only affect the leaves and stems of weeds, causing only temporary die-off, the micelles in our formula carry the active ingredients into the root of the plant, causing permanent die-off with the first application.  As with all non-selective herbicides, care should be taken to prevent overspray from affecting non-targeted plants or grasses.

Micelles are sub-microscopic, electrically charged particles that, when activated in water, repel each other in a ceaseless random movement.  Micelles in liquid solution measure only 2 to 4 nanometers in size, 50 to one hundred times smaller than the particles created from typical cleaners and detergents. This small size and their extreme surface area-to-volume ratio enable the micelles to penetrate and encapsulate complex carbon molecules, and emulsify organic matter.  This highly effective Wise Green Chemistry product kills the targeted plants without toxic affects to people or the environment.

Suggested Dilutions

SHAKE WELL or agitate before use. Use as is, or dilute 1-5 parts concentrate to 1 part water (20-128 oz. of concentrate to 1 gal. water).  Most dilute: 1 part concentrate / 5 parts water.

Apply using preferred method: Hand pump sprayer, tractor mounted spray rig, or aerial sprayer.  A hand held pump will enable selective targeting of specific vegetation.  Spray the foliage and the ground around the stalk. 

For best results, spray when weeds are in the sun to allow optimal penetration.
If results are slow for certain mature weed types, increase concentration or frequency of spraying.  In colder weather, also consider applying earlier in the day because products works best if applied at temperatures above 55 degrees F.
