How do I control nimblewill (Muhlenbergia schreberi ) in a home lawn in Washington County Virginia?
Recommendation: This is a grassy weed that commonly invades cool season lawns in Virgina. It goes dormant in the winter with early frosts. Selective chemical controls are not registered for nimblewill control in cool season lawns. if you wish to renovate these infested areas treat with a non-selective chemical such as glyphosate (Roundup™) while nimblewill is actively growing and reseeded it is a little late to seed this year, but next spring or fall would work. Nimblewill may recover from single glyphosate treatments so multiple treatments about 2 wk apart are recommended. It is getting late in the year to seed grass, seed as quickly as possible. Seeding late October and early September is risky, you may want to wait a year to renovate these areas if it is not a urgent concern.
