Thistlex®
Herbicide
Thistlex® is a very effective translocated product for both creeping and spear thistle. It is very safe to grass.
Thistles need controlling because they:
- compete with grass for space, light, nutrients and water
- are unpalatable to stock
- lead to greater incidence of Orf
- reduce the available grazing
