Can I use Crossbow to kill wild violets in fescue grass without harming the grass? And how many application cycles are necessary to do the job?
Crossbow is not supposed to harm established grasses and should pose no threat on your Fescue grass according to the manufacturer. This being said, we always recommend treating a small area first to test the results as the product is only labeled to be applied on rangeland and permanent grass pastures but not to residential lawns. As long as your grass is not stressed by drought and it is healthy the grass will not be harmed. For applying over grasses you need to make sure you apply at the recommended levels on the product label. We do carry Fertilome Weed Free Zone and it is labeled for wild violet and for use in Fescue lawns. This product is labeled to be applied to residential lawns and is a little more cost effective as well.
