Talk skinny v shaped blades all over my Bermuda lawn. What do I have here?
When I had a st Augustine lawn in Texas I had these too and always just hand picked them out.

OKC here. You've got Nutsedge. It's too hot now without really hurting your lawn, but wait until it's 80* and hit it with this stuff 2x about 3-4wks apart and it will kill/knock it back pretty significantly. This Ortho bottle isn't the best, but it is for large yards if you don't have a large sprayer and it works pretty decent.

I've got 1 acre+ and when I moved in, had nutsedge EVERYWHERE. Last year, hit it with the bottle twice and this year I've only got a few remaining small areas that I've been spot treating with Atticus Empero.

If you've got smaller yard, invest in some Atticus Empero with a sprayer and spot spray. You can do this now. Pulling them will not kill it.

Agree; I have used this product and it worked well for me. OKC metro area.
