Crabgrass/Dimension question

A google search didn't show the effective life of Dimension, but most
pre-emergents only work for 2-6 months. My guess is that whether you
de-thatch this fall or not you'll need to re-apply dimension next spring. If
you de-thatch in the Spring, you'll need to apply Dimension after
de-thatching, which could be too late to prevent crabgrass germination.
Say what? Of course you can't put down pre-emergent in Fall and have
it be effective in Spring for crabgrass. And de-thatching takes a
day, not two months, so there is plenty of time to de-thatch in
Spring, then put down pre-emergent.

I had a section of lawn that had crabgrass in years past.
This spring I used a product that contains Dimension (thanks ahlg).
It worked great. I have some stray crabgrass plants
that I deal with spot treatment.
Will I ruin my Dimension for next year if I de-thatch
this fall/next spring? That is, how long do I have to
wait for the crabgrass seeds to finally die before I'm
able to dethatch?- Hide quoted text -
