      I use herbicide and it dies, then comes back with a vengeance.

        I'm with you on this. I have that shit growing in my paver patio. I douse large clumps of it regularly with round up. Heavy spray, let is sit for a couple of days, then pull. It is like all it does is piss it off!

          LOL, Spurge boys! That shit pisses me off. It grows in my granite so I constantly have to spray it with weed killer. Once it spreads out it has dropped one billion seeds.

          Andddd I thought my back yard was having some issues. I am a non watering, weed mowing guy my self. However I overseed every year and usually my Kentucky 31 makes it ways into the summer and my Bermuda makes it up by the house. Grubs got me the this year. I didn't realize it until they had already wiped out some good areas. 3 bags of poison later maybe I will kill them all off.

          • Are grubs what cause random dead patches of grass? I keep getting dead patches right in the middle of a very thick lush lawn. Total mystery.

              That or disease, grubs feed on the roots. You can dig a small spot out in the dead area and see if there are grubs there, if not, likely disease.

                Hell just walk out on it and pull a chunk up. The grass will come right out like hair because they eat the roots of everything weeds and all. Plus the ground is soft where they burrow around. My rye should settle in nicely and I will Bermuda seed next year. We had way to much rain for my grass to die this year. Shit load of june bugs out here also.

                    Bermuda. Seems to appear towards late summer, and a few times in the same spot from year to year. A month later it grows back in.

                        No, not everytime. One has been in the same spot.

                              I think, hope, you should be ok. I spread mine this weekend. I just need to water it in a bit before it rains

                                Even though it is late for some it will stop the new ones from emerging , spit spray any weeds that show up while it's still in the 80's.
