However if your looking for what’s considered by many as the safest method of herbicide delivery, both from an environmental and work place practice view, please continue.

Recommended Dose Rates Sidewinder
Excellent results will be achieved by applying the same amount of active per injection as the herbicide manufactures “cut and swab” or “stem injection” recommendation, then diluting this with water to give a total of a 5 ml dose, one swing on the pump handle. Sidewinder works better by placing +90% of the shot precisely within the conductive xylem zone.
Feral tree removal project part funded by WWF for Nature and local council on the banks of the North Maroochy River, Yandina, Queensland. A sensitive location with platypus occupying adjacent waterholes.
Multi stemmed camphor laurel being given a lethal dose of herbicide, all stems must be injected separately.
Don’t forget if your working in an environmentally sensitive area or public places use the patented Sidewinder injection site sealing plugs, good PR & insurance.
