The only thing that kills bermuda grass is Roundup - 3 applications, 2
weeks apart. (This is also the dose I use for Poison Ivy). I've never
found anything else that works. I've lived in Knoxville, in SC, and
now in NC. Either you let it take over, using annual rye for spring
color or you kill it, as it kills off fescue.

And bermuda grass and poison ivy are the only plants I use Roundup on.
Everything else, I just pull or damage the crown enought to kill the
plant.

I have some kind of grass, maybe something they use in florida? It's
dead brown in the winter, and in the summer it invades everything. It's
in a few places in the lawn but taking over fast. Hardest to control in
the gardens. How to I get rid of this stuff? (wispering, I did try a
grass weed killer but it did nothing.) Pics at

popped in there but I left it to share.
