Default Stopping creeping red fescue

Another way to put roundup on selectively is to use a spray bottle of
water with a little dishwashing detergent in it to spray on the leaves.
This acts as an adjuvant to "wet" the entire surface. Then you can use
an eyedropper to put roundup on the leaves you don't want. One drop will
disperse all over that leaf because of the detergent's action. This also
allows you to safely use much harsher herbicides.

Roundup. put it on a sponge and dab it on with a rubber glove until
you get it under control in the tight spots..spray it on in the open
areas.
