Sorry if this has been covered before. I have a problem with wild
onions in my yard. My grass is a mix of centipede and St. Augustine.
I live in the South if that is important.
I've tried some granules with mixed success. I've also used round up
but it looks bad to have large dead spots in the yard. However, if
round up is the only solution, I'll be willing to sterilize the entire
yard to get rid of the things. I dislike them that much.

sell them to taco bell?



I've had good results using a concentrated, (~10%) solution of Roundup
or similar applied with a sponge while wearing a rubber glove. You
just grasp near base and slide the sponge along the onion in one
motion. Of course this assumes you have a reasonable number to deal
with.
