I have several spots of Bermuda fighting for dominance in my Centipede. Bermuda is winning. Search of past posts recommend Vantage Grass Killer. It appears to be discounted in many places on line. Is it still being manufactured? Any recommend places on line or local in BTR area to purchase?

The active ingredient in Vantage is sethoxydim. It is effective in controlling Bermuda in centipede.

You can can purchase the herbicide at independent plant nursery retail stores in BR as Fertilome Over-The-Top II herbicide.

Fertilome Over The Top II

Expect some temporary yellowing of the centipede but it will recover. Spray soon before temperatures get to hot (think 90s in the PM).

Don’t use it to control Bermuda in St Augustine. It will kill St Augustine.

ETA: you need to combine it with an oil concentrate for maximum effectiveness. Oil concentrate is not the same product as spreader sticker (surfactant). See link above and read product label online before you purchase. I know Cleggs Nursery on Siegen carries both products.
