Apply 0.07-0.14 oz/1000 sq. ft. (3-6 oz./A) along with 0.25% v/v (1/2 pt./25 gals.) of a nonionic surfactant. Application should be made every 28 days when the grass weeds are actively growing. Keep in mind for herbicides the amount of water is not important. What is important is getting the correct amount of product, over the correct amount of area. Mark off 1000 sq/ft and fill your sprayer tank with only water. Spray as if you were covering the area with the herbicide. However many gallons it takes you to cover that area is how many gallons to mix the product with. Everyone's walking speed and how heavily they spray is different, which is why whether you use 2 gallons or 8 gallons of water to cover 1000 sq/ft, you are correct. Usage chart for spot treatments: 1 gallon water + .75 fl oz of Fusilade + .5 oz surfactant
10 gallons water + 6.5 fl oz Fusilade + 3 oz surfactant
25 gallons water + 1 pint Fusilade + .5 pint surfactant
50 gallon water + 1 qt Fusilade + 1 pint surfactant -

Read Full Answer »Bermuda would be considered a grassy weed, so you need a product that is geared towards grassy weeds and not broadleaf weeds. We want to be clear that bermuda can be suppressed, but it is VERY difficult to kill completely. It will take multiple treatments to finally kill it. But Fusilade II is usually the go to product for this issue. This is directly off of the product label: Apply 0.07-0.14 oz/1000 sq. ft. (3-6 oz./A) along with 0.25% v/v (1/2 pt./25 gals.) of a nonionic surfactant. Application should be made every 28 days when the grass weeds are actively growing. The higher rates may result in temporary discolorization of the desirable turf with recovery in 10-14 days. Do not apply to desirable turf which is under stress. For best results, make applications in spring and fall and avoid treatments during July and August.
Complete control of undesirable grass may take 1-2 growing seasons. We also recommend calling your local county extension office as they usually know the optimum times for spraying lawns in your area. -

I've been reading don't apply when temperature is above 85F. My issue is do apply apply when temperature is below 86 degrees ANYTIME When Bermuda IS GROWING(such as the morning or evening) or does this mean I can't apply the herbicide UNTIL day time HIGHs are below 86 degrees?

Broadleaf weeds, however, are a little more difficult to treat, as most products that will kill broadleaf weeds will also kill the ivy.
