Was diggin around the garage and looked at my cabinet and realized I forgot to bring som stuff in the house last fall :hammerhead:. Im sre it froze with how cold it got this year. Any chance that it is still ok. I froze 2.5 gals of surge, 3/4 of 992, half gal of escalade 2, half gal of battleship 3, pint of quincept, small amount of dis quart or speedzonemiss and about a pint of bifenethrin. Think it is all trashed?

No. I've actually had mixed solution that as still effective the following year. Sometimes, it does some strange things - lightens in color and/or becomes cloudy...it still works though.

I see your Escalade 2 and Battleship 3, but I'll sink your Carrier 4 :)

I'm not familiar with any of those products as I don't do applications, but I did use to be a chemist. In general cold storage is better than hot storage. They shouldn't have degraded chemically, but you may find that some liquids will stratify into layers after freezing because the different fractions have different freezing points. If this happens, mix well and see if they recombine.

I had frozen gly, simazine, image, and carbaryl. After it thawed out, I shook the crap out of it to remix.... I left about a gallon of mixed trimec992 in a backpack sprayer. Not enough to explode the tank but enough to turn to ice. After it thawed I used it around the house and it still killed the broadleaf.

Labels are made by guys in offices. It's real hand experience that counts IMO. We had liquid Dimension that froze, and was over 5 years old. Still worked fine.

I see your battleship & your carrier, and I will sink both of them with my heavy cruisers & PT boats. (T3000) :usflag::usflag:

Arnt most pesticides oil base they don't freeze they just separate some will remix some won't Now new type pesticides like surge and Dim 2ew are water based and will freeze. I have liquid fertilizer that separates in the winter and has to be remixed in the spring
