How To Treat Crabgrass:

The best way to treat crabgrass is by using a pre-emergent in the Spring before the weed germinates.

After crabgrass germinates, it is best to use a commercial product containing quinclorac. 

You should expect to see results about 12-14 days after the application.

 Pro Tip: To dig up crabgrass, use a weed removal tool & gloves to prevent hand injuries.

Nutsedge Weed Treat Nutsedge In Your Lawn

How To Treat Nutsedge:

To treat Nutsedge, you will need a particular herbicide, as Nutsedge is a sedge, so traditional broadleaf or grass chemicals will not work. 

We would recommend that you use a product containing halosulfuron or sulfentrazone for treating Nutsedge. Your lawn may need multiple treatments to eliminate this lawn weed.

Nutsedge can be challenging to control, so it is best to treat your lawn from Nutsedge before it spreads. 

🔍 Fun Fact: Nutsedge can be easily spotted as it grows faster than typical lawn grass.
