Bayer 704100B Bermudagrass Control 32-Ounce Ready-to-Spray

So we want to kill the Bermuda Grass in our lawn. This is no easy task because Bermudagrass is very invasive. It is also a type of grass that people plant, espeacially in warmer climates because it is very drought tollerant. Being a grass that some people want to cultivate, there is a very limited supply of resources for killing it. We did happen to find a product online: Bayer Advanced Bermudagrass Control. The makers say that this stuff:

Removes undesirable Bermudagrass weeds, without damaging your lawn

Selectively kills Bermudagrass weeds allowing Fescue, Kentucky Bluegrass and Perennial Ryegrass lawns to flourish

Eliminates the need for costly, time-intensive treatments

Also kills Crabgrass

Rainproof in one hour

How It Works:
Bermudagrass can be a desired turf grass for some, but for others its a weed.

If your lawn is a cool season turf variety like Fescue, Kentucky Bluegrass or Perennial Ryegrass and your neighbors is Bermudagrass, chances are his Bermudagrass is creeping over to your lawn and wreaking havoc. Dont worry. Bayer Advanced has the solution to your Bermudagrass Weed problem..Bayer Advanced Bermudagrass Control for Lawns.

Because this weed travels under ground, some times it can take repeat applications to control and eventually kill them. If your weeds arent dead after one application, dont despair. It may be necessary to repeat the application a month later. In fact, depending on how big your weed problem is, it may take repeat applications monthly to control and eventually kill Bermudagrass Weeds.

A bit of patience will go a long way to fighting this exasperating weed! But in the end, your weeds will be gone and your beautiful lawn will flourish.

So we sprayed it today, April 30, 2010 and I will retake pictures in a few days and see if there is any change in the grass. You can see our before pictures in my first blog.
