Bonide Sucker Punch, 16 oz Ready-to-Use Spray

It works just as the bottle says. Try to keep a bottle on hand.

I have used Sucker Punch for 3 years and it works great! The first year I got the brush on type but it t was somewhat messy to use. Last year I ordered the spray bottle and it only sprayed a single stream on the sprout, making it very hard to hit my target. Even though the nozzle displayed wider spray options, it still only came out in a single stream. I figured it must have been a malfunction in the nozzle, so ordered it again for 2022. Same type spray bottle, same result therefore you have to use a lot more than you would normally. This product is way too expensive to have to use in this matter. PLEASE FIX THE NOZZLE! Thanks!

Didnt really help much with suckers. Shifted to a different product. It does not go as far as one would expect based on volume in the bottle and the spray applicator is just useless due to its thickness and weird angles I had to hold it. Ended up pouring it into solo cup and applying with a brush. Just an ok result in my case which was to kill suckers. Was 60/40 successful following all application instructions.

I was not expecting to stop the suckers as well as it did. So many growing up from the roots and they are all gone after one application. Very pleased with this product.

Works on the existing suckers when applied but doesn’t stop the constant return of new ones. Hoped this would work on my crêpe Myrtle but they still come back strong with new suckers every six weeks. Too expensive for results achieved.

Kills the tree root suckers! I had cut out some type of bitter berry trees and killed the stumps last fall. This Spring, a carpet of shoots was coming up. I pruned them to an inch of the soil and dobbed the tips with Sucker Punch and shoot issue solved. After three weeks, no new shoots to report. Hopefully we are done with that issue.

This product did not work on suckers from a Sequoia redwood, and the bottle itself was also poorly designed. I cut the first batch of suckers and immediately used the product, carefully adjusting the nozzle between the spray/mist and stream settings. Unfortunately, neither setting functioned properly. Instead of producing a usable spray pattern, the bottle released an uneven, dysfunctional stream that wasted a significant amount of product while providing very little direct coverage. Even with the application issues, enough product made contact with the suckers so I expected to see at least some results. However, after several days and then weeks, there was absolutely no visible effect. The suckers continued as if nothing had been applied. I followed the application process carefully and gave the product adequate time to work. Based on my experience, the product simply failed to perform as advertised. Between the ineffective formula and the defective bottle design, this ended up being a complete waste of both time and money.

I love this stuff! Weeds grow like trees here in Texas, I cut them down and they shoot right back up. But if I spray the stump and the areas where suckers pop up, they stop immediately and die off!! Finally, something that makes a difference!
