    Default Lawn help?

    What is this in my grass and how do I kill it? Started with 1 patch and has spread across yard and jumped the driveway and started on other side.

    All I ever put out is Bonus-s in the spring.

    It showed up a few months back in my grass. I pulled it all out and that seemed to work. Took a little while, but that stuff was spreading with the quickness.

    Pay a kid to mow it, go hunt/fishing.

    Appreciate it!

    I assume 2-4-D is safe for the grass?

    Go by label. Temperature is important.

    If I’m not mistaken, Image will kill it as well and isn’t nearly as harsh on the grass in warmer temps. Image has seemed to have a better residual effect as well compared
    To 2-4-d.

    It’s green, why kill it?

    Contractor put down sod before we purchased. I actually have no clue. I don’t even pretend to know anything about yard stuff, and not ashamed to ask before I do more harm than good.

    If it's centipede you will need trimec.24d will kill centipede. And like most people have stated wait until it cools down.

    Looks like centipede to me, first pic looks exactly like my yard. This lespedeza stuff is growing really good this year with all the rain. Never tried to kill it though.
