i think we have to be careful about this question. where do you live , what kind of grass do you have, and why are you trying to kill it? also, roundup has many different formulations and strengths. You’re better off using the 46% super concentrate or buying it at a farm store. don’t even try the ready to use spray bottles- not the strength your looking for.

I live in the south (FL now, GA previously) and have had great success kiling grass and weeds with Spectracide. You can get it at Home Depot and Lowe’s. I personally think it works better/quicker than Round Up and it is significantly cheaper.

Roundup is an excellent product that kills plants down to the roots (except nutsedges). Home Depot will have a couple of products that kill grasses/weeds etc.

Two simple options are:1. Salt2. Chlorox Neither are listed for turf grass use however but both will work.

Roundup is an excellent killer of perennial grasses. In my opinion, salt is a bad choice.
