How to recognize it
Selective herbicides target certain weeds without harming your lawn. Nonselective herbicides kill any plant they touch.
Why it shows up
Using the wrong product kills the grass you're trying to protect.
How we treat it
Our technicians choose the product by grass type and location. Some lawns limit what's possible. Winter rye, and crabgrass growing in St. Augustine, can't be treated without damaging the lawn.
