When using an overall spray, dose rates are 3-5l/ha in 80- 250 litres of water, using the lower rate for seedlings and plants up to 0.5m high, and the higher rate for plants taller than 0.5m.
Spray when good foliage has developed to a height of at least 50cm in late spring, before the end of June.
A second treatment may be necessary if more seedlings germinate.
You can also use a hand held weed wiper, such as the Micron Microwipe, which is a useful method when working amongst desirable plants and shrubs. Using this method, the dose rate is one part Roundup Pro Biactive in two parts water.
A knapsack sprayer can be used for spot treatment; most are supplied with a set of four deflector nozzles giving different
swath widths, but all deliver 200l/ha of water at 1 bar pressure and a walking speed of 1m/sec.
To cover 50 sqm, 15-25ml of Roundup Pro Biactive is needed; for 500 square metres the dose is 150-250ml in 10 litres of water, and for 1000 square metres 300-500ml in 20 litres of water.
If using Roundup ProBiactive 450, slightly different rates apply for a foliar spray via a knapsack, at 2.4-4 l/ha in 80- 200 litres of water per hectare, for conventional CDA spraying at 2.4l/ha in a minimum of 10 litres/ha water or carrier oil. With the specialist ULV Mankar applicator, the neat product can be used at 2l/ha.

Fascinating fact - The Bionic Control of Invasive Weeds in Wiesbaden, Germany is trying to establish a self-sufficient project to conserve the local biodiversity by developing several food products made from the Impatiens flowers, which will be sold to support the weed control programme - Himalayan Balsam could be financing its own eradication in the future! The organisation has already had some success with jams and other products made from Japanese Knotweed.
At the cutting edge: Abersoch Golf Club has been supported in its eradication programme for Himalayan Balsam by the Countryside Council for Wales and the Environment Agency. The links and parkland course, which is in the Cors Llyferin SSSI, includes areas of marshland which were becoming choked with the invasive weed, as head greenkeeper Arthur Evans explains: “Teams of volunteers come in and cut the plants down each summer - we started some three years ago and, although there is a certain amount of regrowth each year, they are starting to get it down now.”
Qualifications needed for different types of
applicator used to control Himalayan Balsam -
PA1 Foundation module required by all sprayer operators

PA6 Hand held applicator using hydraulic nozzle or rotary atomiser type sprayers (includes knapsacks, CDA and ULV sprayers)
