This may not be the place for this question, but:
Neighbors cats are using my yard, and apparently my yard only, as their personal litter box. It’s killing spots all over my yard and it now looks like shite.
What can I spray, lay down, etc to keep them out?

I spray a barrage of .22 at my house. Folks behind me have cats putting out a litter every month.

While I’d like to, in a neighborhood I would assume that’s a bad idea.

I put weed and feed out early Monday morning when the yard was still soaked. I know you all don’t like it, but, do you think I still need to water it in?

I'd read the label. I've never used a weed and feed, so I'm not sure.

With 2 days of dew, watering now won't do anything.

How much longer should I wait to fertilize? I'm kind of thinking April 14 will be my day, but my lawn is hongry.

That's a good date. It may look hungry, but it doesn't have to root system to eat right now.

Pointdog or bootleg , my yard is in bad shape still . Can I spray hi yield grass killer on my entire yard to knock out some Dallis and burmuda grass instead of spot spaying ? Would that harm my Centipede grass ? I want to spray the whole yard because I can’t tell the difference in the burmuda and centipede in a lot of spots .

It’s safe in centipede and zoysia do you can spray your whole yard.

Son of a gun. Used that exact product and my lawn, especially in the back, looks like dog poop. I wonder if it got nuked and I just missed the memo until now
Scott’s actually was reimbursing people for costs, some folks up to even resodding the entire lawn for them.

OK y'all. Lots of help needed.
This was my yard last year. My post with pictures was third to last on the page. LINK
I killed most of the Virginia Button Weed with Celsius and then raked out as much as I could. Facing a winter with dogs going crazy in mud, I planted some rye grass that has been fantastic. My backyard is beautiful... currently.
I know that the rye grass is soon to die. I've put out general southern lawn weed killer for broadleaf species. I've bought centipede seed and zoysia seed to throw out after mowing short and then keeping moist. Is this a good idea? Besides burn everything and re-sod the entire yard, anyone have other thoughts? Advice on any other strategy is appreciated!!

For reference, this was at the end of last October.

Get a soil test done through LSU Agcenter and they'll can tell you exactly what you need.

I haven't seen much success with over seeding on top of established grass. The seeds get choked out while germinating.
If you could do a light aeration to break the top layer to allow seed to get to dirt, you may have better success.

Mike not sure if the centipede will do
Maybe much with the trees you have in the background. I have to have St Aug due to the shade I have.

April 14
Fertilized with a slow release today. Hopefully it’s not too early.

I fertilized yesterday evening around 6:30pm. The rain won't be hitting here today until around 4:00pm today. Will my grass be ok waiting that long for water or do I need to go ahead and water it a little bit at lunch?

Two weekends ago I hooked up the hose and hit my backyard with an entire bottle of Spectracide Weed Stop for Centipede lawns. $10 at Walmart
I have to say that it killed all of the lespedeza and only the lespedeza. My Centipede made out no problem. I highly recommend for anyone who's yard has been taken over by lespedeza or "Japanese clover".
Picture below is the weed for your identification purposes.(from the internet)
All of mine have crinkled up, dried and withered away.
I will likely follow up later this year with minor spot treatments.
