Lawn CareWeed Control4HighOwner$ implied
Grassy weeds are extremely difficult to control in weak or damaged turf because selective herbicides that target the weed without injuring the desirable grass species are hard to find.
Existing selective herbicides often cannot distinguish between grassy weeds and desirable turf, especially when the turf is stressed or thin, leading to turf injury or ineffective weed control.
