Cheetah Pro Herbicide | Glufosinate Weed Control
Cheetah Pro herbicide delivers fast, non-selective post-emergence control of broadleaf, grassy, and glyphosate-resistant weeds in turf, landscape, and natural areas.
Cheetah Pro Herbicide is a professional-grade, non-selective post-emergence herbicide designed for fast control of difficult broadleaf weeds, grasses, and sedges in managed landscapes, turf, ornamental areas, and natural settings. Powered by 24.5% glufosinate-ammonium, this soluble liquid formula provides an alternative mode of action for weed management programs where glyphosate-resistant or hard-to-control weeds are a concern.
Ideal for landscape trim work, spot treatments, pre-plant site preparation, golf course maintenance, habitat restoration, and ornamental bed management, Cheetah Pro targets emerged vegetation with strong foliar activity and minimal soil residual. This makes it a practical choice for clearing unwanted weeds before planting turf, ornamentals, or greenhouse crops, while helping applicators maintain clean edges around trees, shrubs, potted plants, buildings, roads, and mulched areas.
When used on fully dormant Bermudagrass or Bahiagrass, Cheetah Pro can help control or suppress many winter annual weeds, including annual bluegrass. It is also labeled for a wide range of professional use sites, including golf courses, landscaped areas, ornamental gardens, natural areas, and habitat management areas. Always apply according to the product label and avoid spray contact with desirable foliage or green stems.
