Yeah, missed that part. That's what happens when one gets old.

I use "Crabgrass Killer". It is specific to crabgrass and does not
affect normal grass. It takes 2 or 3 applications, a week apart. It
works very well, but I also use preemergent kill in the spring.
Bonide makes the Crabgrass Killer. A pint costs about $13, but you use
only a capful per gallon. Do it now before the plants drop their seeds
-- approximately 500 to 1000 per plant.

I went for a jog on the local golf course and their crabgrass was dying so
they sprayed it with something. I didn't notice if it was growing in with
bermuda or fescue.

A drivers license to apply a chemical.....cool...I want some of that stuff!

You can use Roundup to kill the crabgrass the trick is in applying it. You
can get a pair of rubber gloves and put a pair of cloth gloves over them.
Then moisten the glove with roundup mixture. carefully apply the roundup
to
the grabgrass by grabbing the shoots of the plant, be carefull not to
touch
the anything you want to live!

Acclaim is the best product I've found, though you need a license to
buy it. Very effective, kills the crabgrass and leaves the lawn
unharmed. The over the counter ones I've tried were poor at killing
the crabgrass and harmed the good grass.

You don't need an Agriculture license to buy cheap urea, it's sold as
ice melt. In fact, it's the only product you can use on certain surfaces.

It's -very- popular for that..the fert *usually* has the anti flash
ingredient added.
