Locust Control: Glyphosate Concentration Matters

Roundup = glyphosate (Monsanto's expired patent). Buy highest % glyphosate product—off-brands equal efficacy, lower cost.

Selection Criteria

• Check label: % active ingredient (glyphosate)
• Higher % = less product needed
• 41% concentrate standard; 50%+ available
• Surfactant included or add separately

Application Efficiency

• Cut-stump: Paint concentrated (undiluted or 50%)
• Foliar: 1.5-2% solution (2-2.6 oz/gal)
• Off-brands: Same active ingredient, lower price

Don't overpay for brand name. Glyphosate is glyphosate—concentration determines value.
