The Andersons Barricade 50 lb Bag

I have used this for 2 years. Very effective. Much better than Preen. I don't like mulch because it is expensive, has to be replaced about every two years, and moves into my lawn when it rains. In the places I placed it two years ago, still no weeds except the occasional dandilion or other big weed variety. I did not reapply this year in several places without any weeds so I'll see what the Spring season brings. I'll try to remember to update the review. Great product!

Works like a charm!

It does really cut down on the germination of crab grass. Maybe better than anything I have tried befoire. But it is very expensive if you have a large lawn, because on the recomended setting (finally arrived at after visiting many other web sites about my spreader and its equivalents) it covered about 1/2 what the bag said. The directions are clearly for lawn professionals that have top of the line spreader brands costing hundreds of dollars. Not so muuch for homeowners. I think I'll look at alternatives again next year because I can't see spending the money for two or three bags of this product at the price charged and the area covered.

Yes it works great. Had to order some more. Thank you

I've been battling with po anna (annual bluegrass) in my tall fescue lawn for some time now. Using this product in the fall and spring has eliminated 90% of it in a year and a half.

I really like this product for preemergent. Of course it is for next years weeds. Nice size for my yard and a friends

2021 update: guys, just buy a bottle of Negate for the Poa, it gets rid of it. Problem solved. It also gets rid of broadleaf and a ton of other weeds. I used my spray in Prodiamine this year, and didn't buy the Barricade. Yard looks AMAZING BLAZING! 2020 UPDATE: Ugh, I think this year has the worst weeds ever. I did notice we don't have half the Poa Annua we did last year. I think applying it earlier this year will help. Update: Applied another bag in September. So that is the max I can put down. I better not see a weed next season :) . Took one bag in my AgriFab spreader to completely cover my 1/2 acre front lawn, the results are yet to be determined since this is the first time using it, but we'll see! Love how it dissolves so quickly into the soil after one short water, followed by another short watering to get it good and down into the soil! This is part of a program I'm following online. So far Anderson's products are perfect!! This is the beginning process of reclaiming my lawn from weeds and a careless lawn-spraying service. I ended up putting 2 bags down since I think the 1st one was washed away. Next season we should have FAR FEWER WEEDS!

I endorse Anderson products but this one has not worked for me two years in a row now; over the same area. Looking now for next years pre-emergent product.
