Tribute® Total Herbicide – Professional-Grade Weed Control for Warm-Season Lawns
Tribute® Total is a selective, post-emergent herbicide designed for professional and serious DIY turf managers who demand maximum weed control in warm-season lawns. It controls a wide range of grass weeds, sedges, kyllingas, and broadleaf weeds while remaining safe on properly established bermudagrass and zoysiagrass when applied correctly.
Formulated as a water-dispersible granule, Tribute Total delivers consistent performance and is also widely used for spring transition to remove overseeded ryegrass from bermuda and zoysia turf.
