Dallis grass is growing nicely though

I think I’ve finally gotten a hold of my Dallis grass problem after being in this house for 3 years. Problem is the yard is finally the way I want it and now I’m about to move this summer and get to start all over again

tell me your secrets cause MSMA doesnt do a whole lot and same with celcius.

I just hit it with high doses of atrazine and msma probably 4 times a year. I still have some but it’s gotten way better than where it was 3 years ago

Ive used that stuff for a couple years in the past with minimal control. Last year I used a different approach and its seems to really have worked.

I bought a weed puller (pic below) and set out and pulled every patch of crab grass, dallisgrass, and whatever else grass I had. Then I sprayed some roundup concentrate in the holes the root ball left.
