Hopefully other Hometalkers will have a better solution for you.

24D will sure kill it. It doesn't harm my bermuda, rye, wheat or corn at all. You will need to check the label for bluegrass but my suspicion is it will be safe.

It likes to be sprayed when it's hot out. I mean in the summer time. It won't do a thing in the fall. Just keep t away from your trees and anything else with broad leaves that you want to keep.

2,4-D is an herbicide that kills plants by changing the way certain cells grow. 2,4-D comes in several chemical forms, including salts, esters, and an acid form. The toxicity of 2,4-D depends on its form. The form also affects what will happen to 2,4-D in the environment and what impacts it may have, especially on fish. 2,4-D is used in many products to control weeds, and it is often mixed with other herbicides in these products.

Here is a good discussion on killing alfalfa, seems like 2 chemicals are quoted by most agricultural centers..... 24D and Roundup. Since I don't like Roundup cause it kills bees.... I would go with 24D....http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/rural-living/125037-how-do-i-get-rid.html You might try Weed B Gon's seperate formula for clover too
