Case Study

A tip for making Rout work even better

Mike Gafa from Nelson City Council in New Zealand just can’t believe how much time he has saved on weeding since he started using Rout. He recently met with Nicola Rochester, Scotts NZ manager, and told her he has reduced his team’s weeding time by around 90%.

“We used to use another product, and line up the plants and go through with a tank and spray. But that application had its problems, the main one being that it just didn’t last that long. We were fighting a losing battle.”Mike is happy to share his secret to success in long-term weed control.
