Daniel Schwarze, Turf Manager at the City of Casey and Luke Armstrong, (former) Acting Team Leader (Public Spaces) at the City of Kingston, share results from the Specticle® Herbicide trials targeting Poa Annua in council-managed turf. 

Results of both trials demonstrate effective control of Poa Annua in a shorter timeframe than initially expected, reinforcing Specticle’s reliability as a pre-emergent solution for high-use public spaces such as sportsfields, ovals and community turf areas. Both turf managers highlighted that a key benefit of Specticle is its ability to reduce overall chemical exposure to the public and the environment - an increasingly important consideration for councils managing community expectations, environmental responsibility and public safety.
