Do you have a garden bed surrounded by Bermuda grass or dollar weed? These are very tough weeds that can easily infiltrate your garden bed. Both grow very easily by lateral running roots. I find that Bermuda grass, dollar weed, and torpedo grass are often the hardest to eradicate in garden beds. They are all very hardy and prolific growers.

While our business typically promotes avoiding chemical management of plant and pest species, thoughtful and precise chemical management of these weeds may be essential in controlling garden beds.
