I’m located in South Florida. and ‘m having an infestation of Japanese clover or Creeping beggerweed (they are very look alike) on my St. Augustin. Somebody knows of a good post emergence herbicide to control it?

I have some other weeds here and there but the Japanese Clover is starting to get evrywhere.

I’m irrigating 2 times a week 1 hour each time.

I have had good results with Weed Free Zone. Also it looks like there might be Live Oak leaves on the ground under the top growth of weed. Live Oak leaves take a long time to break down and form a “shield” between nutrients and water with the soil. If that is what they are, I would recommend raking them out and putting some lime down to neutralize their acidity.

I raked the leaves shortly after the picture. I will try to get that herbicide, the only source I found was eBay.Thank you for the advise.
