Green weeds stand out distinctly in brown zoysia and bermuda lawns now.

I don't think these grass EVER go fully dormant, so spraying a non-selective weedkiller like Roundup on the weeds is not a good idea. But it's easy to make a weed wiper to kill the offenders without hurting the lawn.
Wrap an old towel on the end of a garden rake and spray it with Roundup until damp. Wipe offending green clumps with the towel and no herbicide will drip down onto your lawn grass.

      Anna, M.S. do you know how much per square yard or foot or something to use on the lawn? Any guidance would be helpful.

    Some "feed stores" sell the cornmeal in 50 lb. bags reasonable!
