This stuff was incredible. Our yard became 95% crabgrass. Even the mature crabgrass died within less than 7 days of application. Our yard went from icky weeds to dried up dead crabgrass that we cut super low leaving almost all dust and dirt exposed. We then aerated and seeded using all DMO products. Our yard is so lush and green - it is turf quality. We love it. We do have some winter weeds that just popped up and took over so we are using tenacity this weekend. I heard it works great. So excited for how our yard will look in the spring. Going for best yard in the neighborhood!
great product

Crabgrass Killer #1
By Joshua on 09/10/2021
Wow!! I recently purchased a house and have been slowly reclaiming the yard from the wild. I used Scott's weed and feed to get rid of most of the misc. weeds and clover, only to have crabgrass start creeping in all summer long till almost half the yard had become infested with it. Planning for the future, I decided to plant some Zoysia plugs but wanted to make sure that the crabgrass wouldn't hinder their growth. So I asked a rep at DoMyOwn for their recommendation on a post-emergent crabgrass killer that I could apply now that wouldn't hurt my new plugs and this was it. Read all the directions, followed them to a 't' and a few days later almost all of the crabgrass is dead. (Approx. 90%) All of the good fescue, new Zoysia etc... are doing great. Can't believe how easy it was. Thank you for the expert advice DoMyOwn! :)
Probably a great product

Disappointed
By Ryan on 09/18/2021
I had high hopes for this stuff, just as I have had with previous expensive herbicides I've tried. First the good. My crabgrass is turning brown and I assume it will eventually die, although it's too early to say for certain. Another application may be necessary. The bad is that it has had zero effect on any other weeds in my yard. Both wild violet and ground ivy are thriving after treatment, which is unfortunate. I have spent hundreds of dollars on herbicides and followed the directions precisely. I have consistently been let down by these more expensive products that don't live up to their expectations. In my personal opinion, a cheap bottle if 2 4 D is the most cost effective solution for weed control that I have found thus far, but I will continue my quest. I do think I am done with the upper end products. They seem to be better at killing my wallet more than weeds.
Worked Perfect

100% Satisfied!

I was searching for a product that would help me take back control over my lawn from crabgrass. After neglecting my yard earlier in the year due to an excessive amount of rain and flooding, by late August my lawn was inundated with crabgrass. I ordered the kit and first followed the directions and mixed a 4 gallon amount in a backpack sprayer. I spot sprayed that amount around the perimeter of the house and waited about 5 days. The crabgrass was noticeably doing in 3-5 days. Once satisfied that the chemical had not harmed my Tall Fescue, I mixed a 20 gallon amount in a tow-behind pump operated aerator sprayer and covered about 2/3 of an acre. This product did exactly what it said it would. Kills crabgrass and doesn't harm Tall Fescue. Truly a satisfied customer.
Works

Bought this mainly for torpedo grass but what it did to the crabgrass was amazing. No yellowing or browning of lawn and within 3 days the crabgrass was dead or dying. It also took out most of the torpedo grass but required a second application. I tried it on spurge which it is not listed for and it took that out also. I highly recommend using the bluing agent so you can see what you have done.
Highly recommend

We have used this product previously and was completely satisfied with how it has taken care of the crab grass we have in the northern state, it is especially effective in the spring before the seeds have a chance to germinate. We also use it to spot kill when we get crab grass in August.
This is perfect for killing St Augustine

Crab grass

Drive XLR8 did it in one application.
By Ed on 07/02/2022
This clover want-a-be known as Oxalis infested my yard last year and was taking over large swaths this year along with the dreaded crabgrass. That was until I treat my entire lawn with Drive XLR8 Herbicide Kit with Surfactant. I have 1.30 acers and used the entire bottle accord to the directions. If anything, it was some what diluted, as the entire bottle was only labeled to treat one acre. Nonetheless, I made with work for the entire plot. Very please with the application and results. Yard looks great and it has stopped the unwanted green monsters from attacking my lawn. This cost me half as much as it would have if I have used the Triple Action Weed n Feed with Crabgrass control granules.
Product worked great!

Lawn was seeded in early April with contractors mix. Used product with Duo Stick in July, crabgrass covered the entire yard, 20,000 sq ft. Product killed over 50% of crabgrass. Very pleased with results, but it probably would have worked better if I'd had better soil moisture.
Works great

Excellent Results
By Harvey on 08/18/2022
I applied Drive XLR8 to my yard with Prime Source Duo Stick Select when no rain was forecast for several days. After about five hours after application, we had an unexpected popup rain shower. I was afraid the rain had washed it all away. Within a few days, all of the crabgrass and clover throughout the yard turned yellow and died. I previously tried the stuff from the big box stores that was supposed to kill crabgrass, but it was ineffective. Drive XLR8 was money well spent.
Works well

I went entirely by the instructions and this product didn't work on crabgrass or anything else.
