I hear Pylex is effective, I'd love to hear some first hand reviews. Stuff is expensive though. I tried the ornamec/triclopyr route a couple years ago and it smoked my fescue right along with the Bermuda. At that point might as well go to glyphosate. Now I have KBG and I'm not sure fluazifop is safe for it even when it's cool, let alone in the heat of summer.
So, I've taken a different route for Bermuda control, and thus far it is working well. I am using 3-way broadleaf herbicide at half rate and triclopyr at half rate, and spray whenever I see some Bermuda rear its ugly head. It's safe for the bluegrass and turns the Bermuda brown in a week. I believe triclopyr has about 40% kill rate on Bermuda, so I'm hoping even if I get 25% over the course of 3-4 years it will be mostly gone. And what doesn't get killed is going to have a miserable existence under constant injury.
