IF YOU ARE IN A WRAM CLIMATE IT WILL BE HARD TO GET RID OF BUT IF YOU ARE IN ZONE 7 OR ABOVE IT SHOULD DIE OUT THIS WINTER ALSO YOU CAN TRY FUSILADE. BUT DONT MIX IT TOO STRONG .75 OZ PER GALLON WILL COVER 1000 SQ FT IT IS BEST TO FID A PRO TO DO IT FOR YOU.

During early summer in ARKANSAS, i have had exelencent response to yhe use of METSULFRON AS A POST-EMERGENCE herbaside when applied to mixed-type grasses, which were nearly overgrown with Bahia. As ofpost 2-mo it has resulted in a 90% reduction in Bahia content. there was no adverse effects to Bermuda, or other TURF-GRASSES present. possibly this will help. *it was applied with a small tank rig.
