You may try this the next time you spray the cattails. Just put a little squirt of dish washing detergent in the pump sprayer. The soap acts as a spreader sticker. It holds on to the plant and helps kill it faster. With water it flows off faster. I have 3 pump sprayers. One for weeds, one for bugs and one for round up. I learned this from a farmer. With the bug pump sprayer think of this. Do you like soap in your mouth? Bugs don't either.
