Bonide Grass Beater II Over - The - Top Grass Killer is not labeled to be used in lawns, only Flower beds, Ground covers, Vegetable gardens, and around Shrubs and trees. For actively growing crabgrass, Blindside WDG is safe for warm season turfgrasses such as centipede, St. Augustine, bermudagrass, & zoysiagrass and applied at the rate of 0.15 to 0.23 oz per 1000 sq ft.

Bonide Grass Beater II Over - The - Top Grass Killer is not labeled for control of torpedo grass, nor is it labeled for use on centipede turfgrass. Unfortunately, most products labeled for control of torpedograss are not safe to use on centipede. Solitare WSL Herbicide can be used on centipede at labeled rates, and it can suppress torpedograss (so it would not provide 100% control). Otherwise, you would just need to spot treat using a non-selective herbicide.
