By the end of the year the Bermuda grass was back, and he refused to do any more replacement. He recommended Zoysia Green Lawn Service because they spot treat with Atrazine weed killer. I switched in February. I can see the spot treatments because of the dark green dye in the spray. Well, as of today, those portions of the lawn that were treated are completely infested with Bermuda grass.

After today's rain, I spent an hour on my knees trying to pull the runners up with the roots. The affected areas have a web of runners running in all directions through the grass. Both ends of the runners are rooted, and they just break off at the surface. It's a mess.

I don't know who Jason is, but I'll try to get him over to look at the situation.
Anyone got a picture of what the Bermuda looks like? I was under the mis conception that zoyzia took over everything and anything.
