Customer Reviews for Dismiss Turf Herbicide

The product worked as expected. My false green Kyllinga was dead in two days. Had some loss of cool weather turf grass but within a few weeks the new grass is coming in. Works Great!!

Been going through so many products from home depot and more for getting rid of weeds but ending killing the grass as well . My lawn was in pretty bad shape, came across a video on youtube from a gardener using " dismiss" product, figured at that point it would hurt to try. Spayed it on all weeds spots and within 3 days, they started to die and not the grass ! Awsome product !! Definitely recommend it !!

Dismiss controls weeds pretty good in south Florida. It does hurt the grass too for a while, but if you water every couple days until it recovers it is fine. It doesn't kill all the weeds completely, but it keeps them from overtaking the grass.

Expensive but delivers what promised. Killed the Nutsedge in my lawn in 2 weeks. I saw it was working in 5 days after applying it. The lawn around had no signs of problems. Yet to see the long term results.

Works great on Nutsedge, which was my intended target.

Based on the reviews I bought the product and it is worth every penny. The Nutsedge yellowed and wilted just like everyone said—24 hours. Stuff will be easy to remove with a thatch rake and seed over this fall after aeration. That bottle goes a long way and I recommend using the blue dye to ensure you don't miss any when spot treating with a backpack sprayer. I am in Jersey Northwest on just over an acre and the stuff popped up everywhere this year. Highly recommend. Do My Own is outstanding !

Made a spot application on my lawn in early August with a 1 gallon sprayer, Dismiss quickly killed much of the nutsedge. Made a second spot application in late August to finish off most of the remaining nutsedge. Recently made another quick spot application using a 1 quart sprayer to get a very few more nutsedge that appeared. Dismiss seems to kill the nutsedge with no impact to our lawn fescue, and it's necessary to keep after it with small spot applications. I'll continue applying it next year to keep nutsedge from getting out of control.

Worked great, make sure to not over sprayed this product though. In two sedges were wilting up. Great product.

Works great on yellow nutsedge, that's what I bought it for.Cheaper than Permit, ( Halosulfurno) and works faster, used on Tifway 419 Bermuda grass.

Applied this on wild onions in my zoysia dormant yard as recommended and they curled a little, but did not die. Somewhat disappointed as to no success. Feel like I wasted my money.

For years I had been using IMAGE to kill nutsedge. Never successful; just barely controlled its spread. Switched to DISMISS last year after reading reviews on DoMyOwn. Amazing results! Bermuda tolerates quite well and now I have to hunt just to find single residual stalk of nutsedge. Highly recommend it for spot treatment.

I've had a Nutsedge problem for years. It grows at my mailbox, little areas of my lawn, and through my gravel path. Sedgehammer worked well on the baby Nutgrass, but it was not particularly effective on the mature Nutgrass. I mixed up 1 gallon of Dismiss and put it on baby and mature Nutgrass. The baby stuff was dead within 48-hrs, while the mature stuff began to yellow day by day. By 7-10 days it was completely dead--and that was one application. Nothing has come close to working this well. I also put some in my Fescue lawn, and it did not hurt the Fescue at all. I highly recommend this product.

Product was exactly as described and delivered promptly. I can't find one way my customer experience could have been improved. Recommend.

My yard was being overtaken by nutsedge in the past 3 years. After researching option, I chose dismiss based on reviews from the DoMyOwn site and happy I did. The surrounding grass turned brown but is bouncing back. this time without the nutsedge.

I used Dismiss after many many other products on the Sedge grass that grows around my yard and it did a GREAT JOB. One application and it killed it all off. Thanks

Research indicates that a nutsedge infestation can take a couple of years to fully eradicate. Dismiss started showing results in less than a week, so I am optimistic. I had to get another product to control the crabgrass in my lawn, but this was a great start.

As also with Domyown, quick shipping. I have used Sedge Hammer in the past. It works but takes a long time to see results. Dismiss works faster and works on other weeds also. So far pleased with the purchase.

I was a little weary of using this product in the high heat of South Florida in mid July with a juvenile hybrid Bermuda that I had just seeded not more than 2 months earlier. The Bermuda didn't seem to mind at all- perhaps it grew a little slower for a few weeks but no yellowing. The spurge died off where I sprayed (though I'll need to do another treatment) and some other broadleaf weeds died off in the mix. All in all- for the value it's a great product and will be a regular part of my post emergent treatment. Nutsedge is a strong weed and I have taken over a lawn that hadn't been maintained properly for decades, some sedge patches were as densely matted as a paspalum putting green. One thing I do recommend is letting any post emergent spray sit as long as the label recommends prior to mowing— even longer. I went 9 days - as opposed to my daily mowing at .5625”

This product works as advertised. This is the only product you need for nutsedge and goosegrass which can't be killed by anything else in St Augustine grass. Just be careful! This will kill your lawn if your mix is too strong. Less is more for this powerful weed killer. I tried mixing various amounts to a 1 gallon sprayer. Even at 1/8 teaspoon per gallon of water it is still strong and effective at killing both nutsedge and goosegrass. Use with surfactant and spray a quick single mist over the target weed. It will kill or severely damage the weed within two days. Repeat about week later if necessary. Best for spot treatment. Avoid needlessly spraying entire lawn as this stuff is strong and may still show some damage to non-targeted lawn grass.

Great product. Saw results in 48 hours. Add in some 2,4-D for a kicker.

I have tried other products to try and control my nutsedge, which has ruined my yard over the years, but this is the first product that actually works and fast. Granted, it will take several applications but that is mainly because it is hard to see every bit of it when applying but I finally have hope that my problem will finally be solved. Great price and service from DoMyOwn too!

This product works great. Wait at least 24 hours to water. In a few days Nutsedge will be gone.

I've been battling both purple and yellow nutsedge for years. I've tried multiple products, including sedgehammer, ortho and dismiss, all with limited results, and most of the success on yellow nutsedge. I rarely see the yellow any longer, but still annually battle the purple. I think my purple nut sedge must be some kind of mutant weed. The prescribed ratios weren't effective after 8 days, with very limited damage on the weeds, and some burning of turf, which I know is expected. this is my third season using dismiss. I know if i up the ratio or add a surfactant, I'll just burn the lawn, but that's almost what it feels like i need to do. Easily the most frustrating weed on earth. I want to take a flamethrower to it. is it possible my weeds have built up a tolerance to treatment? I feel like they actually like this stuff given how green they are, while being surrounded by burned grass. Lawn is fescue and bluegrass in New England.

My back lawn was damaged from the installation of a new septic system and full-siding installation on our house last year. The new grass seed failed (planted too late in the fall; and too late in the spring before excessive heat), so the lawn became fully of weeds -especially Green Kyllinga, Yellow Nutsedge, crabgrass, and a wide variety of other, non-grass greens. I compared reviews on Dismiss and a couple of other herbicides recommended by my lawn service; but chose Dismiss due to reports for killing both Kyllinga and Nutsedge. Boy, were those correct. Within 2 days, those specific weeds were well on the way to drying up, along with a few broadleaf weeds and most of the other small creepers. We left for a two-week vacation, so we expect the rest of the weeds to be gone on our return. Perfect timing to dethatch and reseed this fall. Great results.

Looks like it killed the nutsedge.Hopefully it won't grow back.

I live is south Florida, and the Saint Augustine and Floratam grasses are very sensitive to weed killers. Creeping Beggarweed is becoming a very big problem. Weed and Feed doesn't touch it and a new offering from Bayer seems like it would work, but it just gums up my spreaders (both kinds, rotary and drop). Dismiss kills the beggarweed and (so far at least) has not had a significant bad impact on the Saint Augustine and Floratam grasses. I just used it ten days ago and a large percentage of the Beggarweed is already gone. The growing season here seems to get longer each year and usually by this time of the year, the grass is dormant. That is no longer the case, and so I decided to try the Dismiss. I'm glad I did.

2 weeks ago I applied Dismiss as directed in the instructions. To date the effects are mediocre at best.
