I guess I will take your recommendation and try the Bayer weed killer. I always buy according to reviews but like you stated, perhaps many users are not using it properly.
I used to tank mix turflon ester and ornamec to control Bermuda grass.

Just like the guy above, that is what I was getting at. People spray it and don't wait for it to work and think it doesn't work. I apply it a few days after mowing and let it sit for at least a few days preferably a week afterward. Also try to apply it in midday hot sun or early evening so no moisture is on the plants.

The Bayer product works great it just takes a few weeks and maybe a second application to hit the ones you missed. For the $$ and ease of application it's a great product. But it's not instant gratification. I've never needed to use any other professional type product for weed control.

Just make sure you buy the weed killer not the lawn and weed killer like some idiot on Amazon did.
