I got an infestation of it about 30 days ago. Sprayed it with Image about a week ago. Mixed it a little hot. How long does it that this God forsaken weed to die? It been 7 days and its not even turning yellow.

What's the best chemical for this crap? Any advice?

EDIT: I have Bermuda.

I've found that diesel fuel and fire works really well.

I had the same result recently. Image appeared to energize that ****.

I have bermuda (419). Problem with nutsedge is the root runs so deep. I use Image with a higher concentration, but I saturate the soil at point blank range with my sprayer.

If you have more widespread issue, that method could be laborious. Also, I hit my lawn every 45 days with granular broadcast of a pre-emerge.

I've never tried it, but one of my friends swore by Sedgehammer

Tenacity worked well for me a couple of years ago when my lawn was started and completely infested with nutsedge. Turned white after 2-3 days and didn’t touch my Kentucky Bluegrass.
