Most of those sprayers have an adjustment at the tip to go from a<br>
stream to a wider pattern. Twisting the tip on that thing doesn't<br>
change anything?<br>
<br>
If that doesn't work then get yourself another sprayer. Then buy<br>
something like this:<br>

<br>
There are a ton of brands out there. Hose the area down with something<br>
like that and everything will be dead within a couple weeks and stay<br>
that way until next year.<br>
