What are my options at this point? Should I pull it by hand and hope the holes fills in?
What type of grass? Really no good post-emergent herbicide option for St Augustine, although there is for centipede (sethoxydim). If you have St Aug, best option is to cut your grass at 3 to 3 1/2 inches.
Normally your application date would be fine but winter was unusually warm this year so crabgrass germinated early (soil temps of 55 °F). LSU AgCenter recommended pre-emergent application early Feb this year for Baton Rouge area. This is a good example of why it’s better to err on the side of putting out pre-emergents too early, rather than too late, when you’re not sure. Probably always a safe bet to apply pre-emergent in NOLA in early Feb going forward.

St. Augustine lawn. And yeah, was a bit late this year.
How much fill-in can I expect if my St. Aug is looking pretty rough due to the high-traffic from construction?
