What is the best way to get rid of twitch grass?
-
Douglas Hunt on May 15, 2014I'm sorry to say that there are no selective weedkillers that will kill twitch grass (also known as quack grass) and leave your lawn safe. While this is not generally a good idea, keep your lawn on the short side, which will prevent the twitch grass from generating food to store in its roots. Put your lawn on a good fertilization program, because turf responds better to feed than twitch grass and this will help to eventually crowd it out.Helpful Reply
