OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums General Discussion Forum Lawn Care & Maintenance Kikuyu Grass Poison

Hi All,

Does anyone know of a poison to specifically target Kikuyu grass in a Couch lawn?

I would like to kill the Kikuyu without the worry of overspray, dripping, etc on the surrounding Couch lawn.

Thanks

Kerry

Monument is what you need as it will not damage the couch but it is expensive around $300 for 25grams.

Hey Victa Man,
And I thought fuel was expensive at $1.62 a litre; Geez,at that price, I would kill the couch and cultivate a Kike lawn!!

I planted a new Qld blue couch front lawn and had pesky kikuyu runners constantly invading it, everywhere. I just made it a weekly thing, hands and knees and plenty of time and picked the stuff out by hand.

Hi zedman, You've hit on the most effective way of getting rid of it mate, but it is sure labour intensive
Shame there is'nt a cheap selective poison on the market, eh?
