TL;DRAbstract
Many people confuse the nefarious Bermudagrass with the evil crabgrass.Both are weeds, but one is simple to control while the other takes a declaration of war to slow its growth."Crabgrass is an annual," explains Jerry Goodspeed, Utah state University Extension horticulturist."It has wide blades and a fibrous root system.If the soil is a little moist, a simple tug pulls the plant right out of the ground.Bermudagrass, on the other hand, requires a tank, a chain and a small squadron to extract and the roots are still left behind."As an annual, crabgrass is somewhat simple to control, he says.It will die out in the fall once temperatures reach the freezing point.It is a little unsightly now, but that's better than a bill for replacing the whole lawn.
