Does not damage the "good" grass. The best crabgrass killers contain DACTHAL herbicide. Be wise. Buy only a crabgrass killer that has the words "CONTAINS DACTHAL" on the front of the package. Agricultural experiment stations from coast to coast tested DACTHAL—proved it killed 95%-100% of all germinating crabgrass seeds in treated turf. One application effective. Effective against other weeds, too—carpetweed, yellow fox-tail, purslane, common chickweed, lamb's quarters, and witch grass. Make sure you see the DACTHAL name on a crabgrass killer before you buy.
