Another way to get the most out of glyphosate is by combining it with a suitable residual weed control such as Valdor Flex . The combination of Valdor Flex and a glyphosate weed killer allows you to control weeds that are present at the time of spraying while also preventing weeds from returning for up to 4 months . Having this residual effect gives you some extra time of not having to spray weeds that would have already returned with glyphosate therefore preserving your stock levels .
