So the short is I started a new job and traveled heavily the first 6 weeks or so. Anyhow it seems fescue has invaded my Bermuda. Is there a way to kill it without harming my Bermuda? It is significant enough that hand pulling would be a challenge.

Thanks,

William

Are you sure it's fescue and not nutsedge

Honestly I am not sure. I "assumed" it was fescue as it is in clumps and bright deep green. I'll look up Nutsedge and see if it looks like it. If it is will Celcius kill it?

Monument, Katana, revolver, or Certainty

Nutsedge looks like it has a waxy apperance. Lighter green and grows faster than fescue. I only ask because it surprises me that fescue would invade Bermuda at this time of the year.

There are a few lowes products that will specifically lost nutsedge on the bottle. Just be careful with the temperature restrictions

OK, it is tall fescue. It started earlier than Bermuda this spring and I simply did not have time to weed it out.

I used celsius on my lawn and the fescue is looking bad. I figure 90+ degree days and reel mowing will take care of it
