Where to buy 2,4 D for Alligator Weed?

I've got a huge alligator weed project that I need to tackle. Where can I buy 2,4 D with a water label? May be a dumb question but the Gordon 2,4 D at Tractor Supply does not mention aquatics other than don't spray water. Dow has a product DMA 4IV but can't find it (Forestry Suppliers does not show it). Any other thoughts? Thanks.

I would not go with 2,4-D unless in a moist soil situation and wanting to save grasses. You need imazapyr under trade name Habitat, Polaris, or Arsenal. Will also need good surfactant.

IDK your location but Crop Production Services probably has or can get what you decide to apply. They have chemical distribution warehouses in several locations. Surfactant also. Much better than the high yield stuff from a co op.

good luck with that weed. Its a nightmare!

Thanks for the recommendations. Going with imazapyr. Starting this morning. I am not looking forward to this.
