What is the best weed killer to use on a Bermuda yard. When the Bermuda goes dormat these weeds will shine. So I need something that won’t harm the Bermuda and will kill those unwanted weeds/other grasses etc.

When the bermuda is dormant, you can spray ’round up’ on it……this will take out the green weeds without killing the bermuda! A plant has to be actively growing before ’round up’ will work……dormant bermuda has no way to absorb the chemical. You can also prevent a lot of weeds by applying a pre-emergent herbicide,(such as-Scotts ‘halts’) at this time. Mow the lawn short and remove the clippings before applying.
