What about established Crabgrass?

Posted on July 18, 2004

Question:
Hey I love your store. Well the Crabgrass Preventer kept it from spreading, but my lawn still has significant Crabgrass issues. What can I do it kill this stuff? FYI, I don't have pets or kids on the lawn to worry about. Also, what's the best type of grass to overseed with on an established lawn in our area. (What I have is too fine and takes a lot of water.) Thanks.

Answer:
Fertilome Crabgrass killer in liquid will kill crabgrass and many other grass type weeds in the lawn without harming the turfgrass. The best time to spray is in July and the hotter the better. If you are in sun the best overseed grass would be Royal Blue Mix or Estate Mix. See us for details to best suit your lawn.
