Maximize the performance of your aquatic herbicides and algaecides with Cide-Kick II® Aquatic Surfactant. This professional-grade, non-ionic surfactant is specially formulated for aquatic applications, helping herbicides and algaecides spread more evenly, adhere better, and penetrate tough plant surfaces for faster, more effective weed and algae control.

Cide-Kick II® works by reducing surface tension and breaking down the waxy cuticle found on many aquatic weeds. This allows tank-mixed herbicides such as Glyphosate, Reward®, 2,4-D, and Weedtrine® to absorb more efficiently into targeted vegetation. It also improves contact and coverage when used with compatible aquatic algaecides, enhancing control of difficult algae species.

Its biodegradable, water-soluble, non-ionic formula is specifically designed for ponds, lakes, shorelines, canals, and other aquatic environments when used according to label directions.

Key Features & Benefits

• Biodegradable, water-soluble formulation
• Designed specifically for aquatic applications
• Compatible with many labeled aquatic herbicides and algaecides
• Ideal for ponds, lakes, shorelines, canals, and wetlands
• For use according to all label directions and local regulations

Best Applications

Ideal For

• Glyphosate tank mixes
• Reward® herbicide applications
• 2,4-D aquatic herbicide applications
• Weedtrine® herbicide treatments
• Cattails
• Water primrose
• Duckweed
• Shoreline weeds
• Difficult algae species when used with labeled aquatic algaecides

Not Recommended For

• Standalone weed or algae control
• Applications without a compatible labeled aquatic herbicide or algaecide

How It Works

Cide-Kick II® lowers the surface tension of spray solutions, allowing herbicides and algaecides to spread evenly across plant surfaces rather than beading up and running off. The surfactant also softens the protective waxy coating found on many aquatic weeds, increasing absorption of the active ingredients and improving overall treatment performance.

For best results, always tank mix Cide-Kick II® with compatible aquatic herbicides or algaecides at the rates specified on the product labels.

Always read and follow the labels of both the surfactant and the accompanying herbicide or algaecide for approved uses, mixing instructions, application rates, and safety precautions.
