    Q
    Once applied how long will Drive XLR8 Herbicide Crabgrass Killer last?
    Will this be as good as bear foot Ureabor

    Drive XLR8 Herbicide Crabgrass Killer is a post emergent herbicide only, this means it only kills only those list weeds listed on the product label that are directly sprayed and actively growing.  There will be no residual to continue killing or prevent anything new from growing.  We do not carr a product called bear foot Ureabor so cannot comment on it, we do apologize.

    Q
    Would Drive XLR8 kill crabgrass seedheads while killing the crabgrass?
    I have full grown crabgrass with seed heads everywhere.
    A

    Drive XLR8 is a post-emergent herbicide only. So while it will kill existing plants, it does not prevent new seeds from germinating. We recommend using a pre-emergent such as Dimension 2EW in the spring before soil temps reach 55 degrees to prevent new crabgrass from growing next year.

    Q
    Will Drive XLR8 Herbicide Crabgrass Killer kill crows foot grass?
    A

    Drive XLR8 Herbicide Crabgrass Killer is not labeled for crowfoot grass.  For crowfoot, it is generally recommended to treat with a pre-emergent product. Something like Ferti-Lome Weed and Feed with Dimension would be an excellent option. This will be used either in early spring or in the fall. 
    For the weeds that are there now, we would recommend spot treating with a glyphosate product and reseed/sod the areas. This will kill whatever it comes in contact with.
