The product does not pose a risk to human health or the environment and is compatible with normal lawn maintenance operations such as mowing, fertilization, and irrigation. The active ingredient in Sarritor is a strain of Sclerotinia minor , a naturally occurring fungus in Canada that infects susceptible dandelion plants and destroys dandelion plant tissues above ground.

The active ingredient of Sarritor is a naturally occurring fungus. The fungus is coated on a dry granular carrier that can be applied directly on a broadleaf weed.

The fungus is activated by moisture and works best when temperature is between 18 and 24 degrees C. It grows naturally in the week and absorbs the plant issues until the weed is completely gone.

Once the weed is gone, the fungus dies and no residuals are left. Now there is an environmentally safe alternative to selective chemical herbicides that have been banned. How to get rid of dandelions — safely — that is the question. There are two exciting new alternatives for gardeners who want a nice-looking lawn without using traditional herbicides.

If you have given up traditional lawn weed killers either due to legislation or personal choice, you now have safer, greener options.

Two new products, one biological, the other metallic, are now available and claim to kill dandelions as well as other broad-leaved lawn weeds without harming your grass.

Sarritor is composed of a naturally occurring fungus that is touted to devour the big three lawn weeds — dandelion, clover and plantain. When the lawn weeds are dead after 5 to 7 days , the fungus disappears without a trace. Once the granular product is applied, at least 15 minutes of rain or irrigation is needed to activate the fungus, and optimum weed kill occurs between 64 to 75 degrees F degrees C. The area should not be mowed for 3 days after application. For homeowners with average sized lawns, Sarritor now comes in an easy-to-use shaker bottle, which dispenses the correct dose with each application.

One dose per dandelion plant is all you need.
