They are very helpful there. I have some weeds like that, but only thicker blades (like St Augustine) and the shoots are thicker also. Grows so fast.
How to Kill Nut Grass in My Lawn | eHow

I think we may all have Nut Sedge Grass. I started to get it coming through my turf last year, it comes up like a bulb shooting up and when pulled you can see the small bulb on the base. It is extremely invasive and spreads throughout the whole area sending out roots underground. Scotts is my lawn company and they told me it is very difficult to control and is spread from yard to yard by lawn companies cutting lawn after lawn. I wait until mine get to a manageable size and then hand pull them.
