Q&A – What chemical will control purple violet in Bermuda?

Question:
What chemical will control purple violet in Bermuda grass and when is best time to spray?

Answer:
Any of the broad-leafed weed killers should do the trick. Retired UT extension agent Mike Dennison names Dicamba and 2,4-D. Violet is a tough weed and may take several applications. It is best to spray when they are just coming up, even before you see them. That is when they are most susceptible to chemical treatment.
