Looking for help concerning our lawn. We are up north right now but a call from our neighbor about a grass infestation in parts of our back lawn. The "grass" is called torpedo grass. Contacted our lawn care company and were told it just about impossible to eradicate. Even if we resod the area the root ball is deep and it sends runners out above and below ground and would come back again. Cutting or pulling it just spreads it. How we got it, who knows. I believe this stuff is spread from an infected lawn when mowed and carried on to the next one. We are working with our lawn care company to control it and to at least kill what is above ground. Anyone have experienced this and was able to permently resolve it?
