Hey mate, I'm new on here - first post!
What sort of weeds? Grasses or broadleaf? Can you identify them? All the selective broadleaf weeders will tell you on the label if safe on buffalo.
I use a product made by Barmac called Broadleaf Weeder (ironically!) but not sure on domestic availability. Off the top of my head I think the actives are mcpa, mecoprop and dicamba... I think!
Good luck.
Bin-die works well, it's a Barmac product from memory. I buy it direct from Globe, works brilliant on Sir Walter.

I've always been under the impression that Buffalo and Dicamba are a no no.

Re: dicamba, I thought the same, Kamba M has twice the amount of dicamba in it and seems to burn Buffalo and some couch. However broadleaf weeder is fine in my experience on buffalo and couch. Of course like anything off label - or sometimes even on label you'd be mad to take advice without trailing a small patch first.
Can take a photo of a small patch of buffalo I sprayed about 2 weeks ago if you like...
Cheers.
Do you guys control broad leaf weeds in lawns for one off jobs or casual customers over winter? Now that the grass is slow, does this mean you have less work over the colder months?
At the moment, I'm mostly mowing dandelion heads and other weed seeds, although once the weeds are under control the grass should grow better.
Does spraying reduce your mowing work over winter? I know there are other things that can be done over winter as well.

When the lawns go to 4 weeks I usually offer a lawn weed spray to my customers for the same price as a mow and do it between mows.
It's a good idea to do one at the start of winter for broadleaf and one at the end of winter/start of spring for bindii/broadleaf.
It just gives you 2 more visits per year which is extra $$$.

plus its a weednfeed so should encourage a small amount of growth, esp. winter grasses
I try not to use weed and feed.
You can charge for a lawn weed ( twice per year) then again for a slow release lawn feed (usually every 10 weeks) but if you do both at the same time you can't charge double...

Also, if you look into weed'n'feed products, you will find that their N:P:K ratios are not right for use at most times of year.
For example, using that as an autumn fertilisation would cause some pretty interesting damage or possible outright lawn death. Places like Canada are seriously considering, if they haven't already passed regulations, outlawing that kind of product for some fairly reasonable 'green' reasons.
