Is there anything other than sedgehammer that kills it? My neighbor is always pulling it in his yard so it stays forever. Figure if I can offer a solution better than the one hit packets of sedge, it would simplify things.

I've had really great success battling yellow nutsedge with Tenacity. 2 apps, 2 weeks apart at label rate when it was growing fast. I like the tenacity because it has worked great on a lot of the problems in my yard.

Edit: We can't get sulfentrazone in NY, so I can't compare the 2

If tenacity works, I can hit it when I do my own blanket spray then
One great thing about doing a blanket spray with tenacity (assuming a post emergent foliage spray, not a pre-m water-in) is that the affected weeds lighten up (more than the turf, in my case)which makes a second spot spray super easy and efficient!

How long does the whitening effect last?

Honestly I'm not sure because everything that whitened died in a few weeks. We'll, except for the fescue. That lightened up for probably a couple weeks but bounced back fully. I do remember the nutsedge browned out pretty quick after the first app.
