Just went to Do My Own website and it states the Ferti-Lomé Weed Free Zone can’t be shipped to Louisiana restricted to licensed applicators. Anybody know when this went into effect?

Interesting. As I suspected, according to LA Dept of Agriculture & Forestry (LDAF) website Fertilome Weed Free Zone (manufactured by Voluntary Purchasing Groups, Inc; VPG, Inc) is only a restricted use pesticide (RUP) in Louisiana when sold in containers exceeding 1 quart in size. Container size, or volume quantity, purchase restrictions is not uncommon for a number of commonly used lawn-household pesticides.

Anyway, though DoYourOwn is technically not wrong, they could sell containers of Fertilome WFZ in Louisiana, 1 quart or smaller, to the general public if they chose to do so.

That said, you can buy Fertllome Weed Free Zone at most retail Garden Centers or Hardware Stores in container sizes of 1 quart or smaller in LA.

If you are interested, the 2025 RUPs for LA are in this 38 page file, page 36 for the Weed Free Zone restriction. I pulled this from the LDAF web site.

Good info, thanks.

It seems that DoMyOwn decided to restrict all sales to La. It wouldn’t let me buy the 32oz, 16oz or 8oz. I did notice it was an available my local feed store’s website.

Nurseries in LA carry it. No issues.
