St Aug lawn in the NOLA area. Have had trouble with VBW in the last but after the hurricane it seemed to spread like wildfire. Applied celcius for the first time 2 weeks ago after following the advice on this board for quite some time. It was mature VBW.

2 weeks later I have some yellowing and it seems to have knocked quite a bit of the various weeds out, but I still have some spots that are flowering. My question is it okay to hit it again this soon for spot spraying? I used the high rate last time, should I do so again this time? I also used surfactant.

TIA!

I would say yes to all your questions, particularly if spot spraying patches. The Celsius label says 2 to 4 weeks for re-spray for VBW and you are in that window.

As long as you are just spot spraying the worst thing that will happen is that it will brown or kill the grass around it. Don't keep nuking your entire yard, but spot spraying isn't really a big deal.

You can also take a small paint brush and brush it with roundup fwiw. Sometimes that's easier as its one and done.

You will NEVER kill it all, you can only control it.....

Spot spray with super high dose is the only way I have gotten any results.

Worst weed ever.....
