Jason from Tampa, Fl writes

Can Pylex be used to eliminate (suppress) bermuda in St Augustine?

I.E. is it selective enough to knock down the bermuda and give the St Aug the advantage to take over and choke out the bermuda?

Answer:

Although it can be used to eliminate Bermuda grass, Pylex Herbicide cannot be applied to St. Augustine grass.  Unfortunately, Bermuda grass is so closely related to St. Augustine grass that there is nothing that will remove Bermuda from St. Augustine without also harming the St. Augustine as well.  In your situation it is recommended to spot treat the Bermuda with a nonselective herbicide such as Roundup QuikPro, and then replant/resod with St. Augustine in those areas in a couple of weeks when the Bermuda is gone.
