Hand pulling is not effective because the weed produces runners that break and sprout into new plants. The best selective chemical to control green kyllinga is halosulfuron (Manage™). It may take two treatments to completely control the weed. Start immediately and try to get two treatments down at three-week intervals before the frost. Next spring, check the area for new weed infestation and treat again if needed in June. Follow label instructions or hire a professional lawn care company to treat.
