I did a section of my yard (this is a test)yesterday and I was careful
to touch only the blades of the nutgrass and leaves of the ground ivy.
just wondered how effective a (touch) of the potent concentrate would
be. Also looked at the url-Ortho is effective for nutgrass and ground ivy?

hello all-we are actually having a spring here in Memphis! I have an old
glass container of roundup (the good stuff-concentrate) I was thinking
of using a small sponge paintbrush dipped in the roundup concentrate to
kill nutgrass and ground ivy in my bermuda grass lawn. As long as the
wet sponge makes contact with the unwanted weeds do you think this will
be sufficient for their demise?


Yes, but it sounds like a recipie for brown spots.

Try a more selective control:
