My backyard has always had this pest of a weed but is really ate up with it this year. Pulling it up by hand is back-breaking, and none of my herbicides seem to touch it without also killing the bermuda yard.

How much do you have? I've just gone glyphosate spot spraying with weeds like that (dallisgrass) and the Bermuda fills in by the end of the summer

A ****load. My backyard is about 2/3 of an acre and maybe 1/4 of it is covered.

I feel your pain. I just bit the bullet and sprayed with glyphosate and let the Bermuda fill in as well as took plugs from good areas to help out.

Looks like mimosa strigillosa, a flower/ground cover.

if it's sensitive, just call it a little b**** and it should wither up

Cat claw sensitive briar. Legume, and a fantastic wildlife plant. However…….

No reason Weed B Gone shouldn't nail it. Be sure to add surfactant.
Being in TexAgs jail changes a man……..no, not really

I'll have to try the one with triclopyr. The one with 2,4-D doesn't do jack.

Did you add some Dawn or other surfactant?

Yes. That weed ignored it completely. I know atrazine will get it but don't want to burn up my yard.
