Bonide Sucker Punch Knock out Sprouts 8 oz

If you have a lot of Sucker growth on trees....this is a very small amount, but works!

Helps well. Works well.

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 have a crepe myrtle tree and been at battle with it’s offshoots for years. The more I cut them, the harder they fight and they started coming up quite far from the original tree into other plants and areas. I did a little research and it led me to this product. I was a bit taken aback by the cost but read the reviews and decided to give it a shot. It works. Cut the suckers as close to the soil as you can get (you can even dig out some of the top layer of soil as you go), spray the exposed root to cover it in the solution (which is white so makes it easy to see if covered), and cover the root back up with soil or mulch so the sun doesn’t burn the solution off. Since I started using this a few months ago, I’ve had very little maintenance to do on the tree. From what I can tell, there’s been no more growth from the shoots that have been sprayed, only new shoots as the tree keeps fighting to spread its wings. I even loaned the bottle to my neighbor as her crepe myrtle was becoming an eye sore, and she went to work on it too and it looks so much better. Bottle has gotten decent amount of use and still seems to be about half full. Will buy again if I need to but expect to get at least a year out of this bottle.

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.

Works as expected. You might buy two if you have many trees. Use sparingly. Best if used on a fresh cut from the sucker.

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.

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.
