Application of pre-emergent herbicides -- particularly with the active ingredients benefin, dithiopyr, pendimenthalin, prodiamine, or trifluralin -- in early spring when forsythia is in full bloom and soil temperatures reach 50 - 55°F (10 - 12.78°C) 1 - 2 inches (2.54 - 5.08 centimeters) down from surface-level and proper attention to fertilizing, mowing, and watering turf-grasses are the ways to eliminate crabgrass (Digitaria spp). Where the lawn-owner has extensive land and severe problems, the commitment to controlled burns, pre-emergent applications, and severe mowing will work wonders.

How do you kill crabgrass in St Augustine?
In St. Augustine grass it is most important to apply a crabgrass preventer and fertilizer in early Spring. Far easier to prevent than to kill later as almost anything that kills crabgrass can kill St. Augustine grass. Our Ace Hardware sells a crabgrass preventer in the Spring. They now have a product called Garden Weasel Crabgrass killer. A container of this powder will do up to 200 sq. ft. Must be applied to wet leaves on the crabgrass. I found I did a second application on some "tough guys" but it worked fine.

How do you keep crabgrass from coming back?
Crabgrass can be very annoying and can turn a perfectly fine lawn into a disaster if not treated immediately. There are several options for crabgrass removal. First option: If the crabgrass is localized to few areas of the lawn they do sell sprays that will destroy ONLY crabgrass. Bayer makes a very good crabgrass spray that you will be able to pick up at a Home Depot or Lowe's. Once the problem grass is gone, you can spot seed and get real grass back. Second option: Once again, if the crabgrass is localized to few areas of the lawn to may be able to just pull the crabgrass out by hand. A little more labor intensive, but will save you a few bucks. Once problem grass is gone, just spot seed. Also make sure if you are spot seeding that you scratch the dirt up a bit on the areas you are seeding. Once seed is put down, very gently back-rake the spot ( if the area is tiny you can use your hands to just try to cover the seed with a LITTLE bit of dirt just to hold it in place ). Back-raking is just taking a rake, and putting on its backside. Make sure to water daily. A little bit of peat moss works great for retaining water. Third option: If the crabgrass has taken over more than half of your lawn, you may need to till the affected areas. After tilling, remove the crabgrass with a grading rake. Then seed the area and start new. This will be the worst case scenario though.
