Athea 832 Barren Aerosol - Non-Selective Persistent Herbicide Soil Sterilant
Barren Aerosol is a reddish-brown liquid EPA-registered non-selective herbicide aerosol formulation containing 1.09% 2,4-D low-volatile ester, 0.98% bromacil, petroleum distillates, xylene, and xylene range aromatic solvents that provides rapid top kill with systemic and long-lasting residual action up to 12 months making it ideal for non-cropland areas where complete control of all vegetation is desired without regard to future replanting. The inverted trigger design enables accurate application to fence rows, parking lots, around buildings, loading ramps, storage yards, tank farms, along pipelines, industrial plant sites, railroad rights-of-way, and similar areas where grasses and weeds interfere with drainage, create fire hazards, or cause unsightly appearances. The ready-to-use formulation requires no dilution or mixing enabling rapid deployment by facility maintenance personnel in emergency situations requiring immediate vegetation control and complete site sterilization.
The dual-herbicide chemistry combines 2,4-D ester for broad-spectrum broadleaf weed control with bromacil soil sterilant providing residual control of seeds and germinating vegetation for extended periods preventing regrowth of diverse plant species. The low volatile ester formulation provides rapid penetration and translocation in target plants ensuring effective systemic kill throughout the entire plant system including roots and rhizomes preventing regrowth from underground structures. The insolubility of the herbicide in water ensures full effectiveness regardless of rainfall after application or plant growth stage at time of treatment providing reliability in unpredictable weather conditions. The fuel oil fragrance indicates active chemical content while the petroleum distillate carrier provides superior spreading and penetration on plant foliage. The twelve-can case format with individual 17-ounce containers enables convenient distribution to multiple treatment sites and emergency response teams requiring immediate weed control capability. The VOC-compliant formulation meets environmental regulatory requirements while providing effective persistent vegetation control for extended operational seasons.
