Ortho Makes a Weed-B-Gon for southern lawns(st. augustine), check your local Home Depot/Lowes, they will more than likely carry it. Good Luck!


Check the label on 2-4-D and see if it is compatible with St, Augustine grass.

"Fertilization during the establishment period (first three months after planting) is critical to developing a complete cover of St. Augustine grass. A starter fertilizer (one high in phosphorous) or a balanced, complete fertilizer should be applied at planting time. Subsequent applications of nitrogen at monthly intervals at a rate of 1 pound per 1,000 square feet will promote rapid spread of St. Augustine grass plugs. Weeds can be controlled preemerge with atrazine or post emerge with asulam (Asulox) and hormone-type herbicides (2,4-D, MCPP, dicamba)."
Scotts makes a dry weed killer for st augustine grass.I believe its in a white/purple bag.
