Can I use a pull behind sprayer with booms to spray Fusilade II Herbicide over my entire yard and not kill my tall fescue grass?

Does Spectracide Weed Stop work on wire grass?

Answer:

The Fusilade II Herbicide is labeled to control bermuda grass, often referred to as wire grass, safely in a Tall Fescue lawn. The instructions from the Fusilade Product Label for this application are copied below. Spectracide Weed Stop is not labeled to kill wiregrass/bermuda grass. 

Over-spray Tall Fescue turfgrass: Application rate should be 5-6 fl oz/A. Application should be made during warm weather in early spring (April, May) when bermudagrass is breaking dormancy. This should be repeated in fall (September, October) when bermudagrass is preparing for dormancy. Applications during the hot months of summer should be avoided. Note: This application will show slight discoloration to desirable turfgrass. Tall Fescue turfgrass should recover within 10–14 days. Weather and cultural treatments can also affect applications. Use a minimum of 30 gallons of water per acre.
