Arsenal is an industrial herbicide used to control weeds in non-agricultural areas. This non-stop herbicide is absorbed through the leaf blade and root system, causing stunted growth and death of plants. Treatment should be carried out during periods of intense weed growth. When used correctly, results last for two years.

Mechanism of action on weeds

When sprayed, the herbicide is absorbed by the weed's leaves, stems, and roots. Under the influence of nicotinic acid, the plant's growth and development cease, cells cease dividing, and the plant gradually wilts. Arsenal differs from similar products in that it leaves the weed green until the end. The herbicide persists in the surface soil for up to two years, preventing new plants from appearing for a long time.
