Wherein, bottle 20 may be sized and configured to hold quantity 16 of pesticide material 12 that is pre-measured for -gallon tank 28 for handheld sprayer 30, 1-gallon tank 32 for handheld sprayer 30, 2-gallon tank 34 for handheld sprayer 30, 5-gallon tank (or 4-gallon tank) 35 for backpack sprayer 36, or 30-gallon tank 38 for broadcast sprayer 40. Wherein bottle 20 may include: 0.8-ounce bottle 42 configured to hold quantity 16 of 0.8 ounces of pesticide material 12 in concentrated form 14 that is pre-measured for -gallon tank 28 of handheld sprayer 30; 1.6-ounce bottle 44 configured to hold quantity 16 of 1.6 ounces of pesticide material 12 in concentrated form 14 that is pre-measured for 1-gallon tank 32 of handheld sprayer 34; 3.2-ounce bottle 46 configured to hold quantity 16 of 3.2 ounces of pesticide material 12 in concentrated form 14 that is pre-measured for 2-gallon tank 34 of handheld sprayer 30; 8-ounce bottle 48 configured to hold quantity 16 of 8.0 ounces of pesticide material 12 in concentrated form 14 that is pre-measured for 5-gallon tank (or 4-gallon tank) 35 of backpack sprayer 36; or 48-ounce or 60-ounce bottle 50 configured to hold quantity 16 of 48.0-60.0 ounces of pesticide material 12 in concentrated form 14 that is pre-measured for 30-gallon tank 38 of broadcast sprayer 40. Wherein, step 107 of mixing the provided pre-measured single use concentrated pesticide product 10 with water 26 in tank 22 of applicator 21 with specific applicator tank size 18 may include: step 108 of mixing the 0.8 ounces of pesticide material 12 in concentrated form 14 from 0.8-ounce bottle 42 with water 26 in -gallon tank 28 of handheld sprayer 30; step 110 of mixing the 1.6 ounces of pesticide material 12 in concentrated form 14 from 1.6-ounce bottle 44 with water 26 in 1-gallon tank 32 of handheld sprayer 30; step 112 of mixing the 3.2 ounces of pesticide material 12 in concentrated form 14 from 3.2-ounce bottle 46 with water 26 in 2-gallon tank 34 of handheld sprayer 30; step 114 of mixing 8.0 ounces of pesticide material 12 in concentrated form 14 from 8-ounce bottle 48 with water 26 in 5-gallon tank (or 4-gallon tank) 35 of backpack sprayer 36; or step 116 of mixing the 48.0-60.0 ounces of pesticide material 12 in concentrated form 14 from 48-ounce or 60-ounce bottle 50 with water 26 in 30-gallon tank 38 of broadcast sprayer 40.

    [0061] In sum, the disclosed pre-measured, single use concentrated pesticide product 10 and method 200 of creating pesticide spray with such pre-measured, single use concentrated pesticide product 10 may be designed and configured to optimize efficiency and create safer work environment 24 by providing a product with a premeasured single use concentrated product, like a herbicide product or material 54 (selective 82 or non-selective herbicide 84), fungicide product 76, fertilizer product 78, or the like, packed in a small container or bottle 20, including, but not limited to, a small 16 oz. container or bottle 66 or a small 8 oz. container or bottle 48. The intention of the disclosed product 10 and method 100 of use thereof is to solve the problem(s) of time consumption and inefficiency in the field measuring out the correct quantities, including, but not limited to, for 4 or 5 gallon backpack sprayers 36. Additionally, the disclosed product 10 and method 100 of use thereof may also solve contamination concerns of a local work environment 24 by removing the need to measure out liquids. Commercially, this is extremely effective to transport to a local water source away from the vehicle, as an example, typically water 26 is needed to be added first before pesticides to prevent excessive Foaming.

    [0062] As such, a feature of the disclosed product 10 and/or method 100 of use thereof may be its ability to prevent the need to measure out liquids in the field.

    [0063] Another feature of the disclosed product 10 and/or method 100 of use thereof may be the ability to prevent contamination of local area for providing a safer work environment 24.

    [0064] Another feature of the disclosed product 10 and/or method 100 of use thereof may be the ability to increase efficiency and save time.
