I am sorry, but we don't know where you live and what kind of grass you
may have.

I suggest that you contact your local county extension office. It is a
government service and they can give you some good advice, not tainted by a
profit motive like you get at the garden center and they will know the local
conditions. Look them up in your local phone book and give them a call.

Lowes and Home Depot sell some spray bottles of crabgrass kiler for spot
use. They are just simple pump sprayer like a bottle of Windex. The stuff
works well on a variety of grassy weeds without damaging most good grasses.

In most of the US, it's unlikely that it's crabgrass, because it's just
starting to germinate and doesn't become a noticeable problem until
Jul/Aug.

The Bayer weedkiller I am thinking of (sorry I can't be more specific but
I've only seen 2 different ones from Bayer in pump bottles) killers other
bad weeds and grasses besides crabgrass.
