    Q
    Is SedgeHammer Plus Herbicide safe for switchgrass to kill yellow nutsedge? Switchgrass is used for wildlife cover.
    A

    SedgeHammer Plus Herbicide is not labeled safe or tolerant on switchgrass. Unfortunately, the best option for treating nutsedge in switchgrass would be use a non selective herbicide such as glyphosate and spot treat the weeds directly. You can harvest the switchgrass high enough to leave actively growing weeds, then apply glyphosate at 1 to 2 quarts per acre..It is important to wait until the switchgrass is dormant so that it is not damaged by the glyphosate.

    Check with your Extension agent or other experts for information on which herbicides are labeled for use in the state and county where you will be using them.

    Q
    Will SedgeHammer Plus Herbicide kill woodsorrel in St. Augustine?
    A

    Sedgehammer + Herbicide is only labeled to control Purple Nutsedge, Yellow Nutsedge, and Kyllinga and would not control woodsorrel.

    For woodsorrel in St. Augustine lawns, Hi-Yield Atrazine Weed Killer or Fertilome Weed Free Zone would be a better option. 

    • Please note, Fertilome Weed Free Zone is not recommend to be used on Floratam or Bitterblue varieties of St Augustine unless discoloration and temporary injury can be tolerated. Other species of St Augustine would be safe if used at labeled rates. 
    View our Woodsorrel (Oxalis) Guide for more information. 

    Applying a pre emergent such as Pendulum 2G in early Spring and late Fall is recommended to prevent weeds from germinating. This will help cut back on the amount of post emergent applications during the actively growing season. View our Warm Season Lawn Care Schedule for more information.
