A complete season-long weed control program, combining pre- and post-emergent protection.

The Spartan + Odessa Premium Bundle combines a powerful pre-emergent and post-emergent herbicide program to help turf managers and homeowners control both existing weeds and future germination in established lawns.

This combination provides a complete weed management approach, tackling both existing weeds and preventing new outbreaks.

Spartan Herbicide

Works as a pre-emergent herbicide, forming a barrier in the soil profile that prevents weed seeds from successfully establishing. As small-seeded weeds germinate within the treated zone, they absorb the herbicide and fail to establish roots. 

Spartan provides season-long control of annual grass weeds, helping reduce reliance on repeated post-emergent herbicide applications and preventing future weed seed set. It is an economical solution for major annual turf weeds including:

African Lovegrass
Parramatta Grass
Summer Grass
Crab Grass
Crowsfoot Grass
Winter Grass

Odessa Herbicide

Complements Spartan by providing post-emergent control of difficult broadleaf and problem weeds that have already established in turf. Odessa is particularly effective against species that many other herbicides struggle to control, including:

Bindii (Soliva sessilis)
Black Thistle (Cirsium vulgare)
Cat’s Ear (Hypochoeris radicata)
Cotula (Cotula australis)
Cudweed (Gnaphalium spp.)
Guildford Grass / Onion Grass (Romulea rosea)
Medic (Medicago spp.)
Mouse Ear Chickweed (Cerastium vulgatum)
Oxalis (Oxalis corniculata)
White Clover (Trifolium repens)
False Onion Weed / Fragrant False Garlic (Nothoscordum spp.)
