I have an area of lawn (sod) in my backyard. This summer I started getting these weeds pooping up in my lawn. I've been pulling them when I mow but they still keep coming back. Is this some type of crabgrass? Sorry I admit ignorance to this type of stuff. Can anyone identify these weeds and how can I effectively get rid of them beyond pulling them out.

There's a few things that immediately come to mind but without knowing where you're located (just your state is fine) and if there are/were any seeds/seed heads/spikey balls and if you can describe what they looked like then we might be able to say for sure. Just grass blades alone don't narrow it down enough. (for me anyway)

Since you mentioned living in Ca here is state specific advice in how to deal with it. Nutsedge Management Guidelines--UC IPM It is a PITA to deal with in some cases. I yank it in the garden constantly but have not had to resort to chemical warfare yet.

Thanks for the info. Thank you all I appreciate it. I had a friend who does landscaping also confirm its nutsedge. Pesky stuff.
You are welcome. Good luck with the removal, pesky certainly is a good description!
