How can I rid my lawn of "Quack Grass"?

Question

I live in Michigan and my and my neighbors' lawns have Quack Grass. Quack grass is similar to grass but has a wider leaf, lighter green color and grows about 40% faster than lawn grass. I have tried tediously pulling it out one at a time, and I tried using Roundup to the dismay of my lawn. Is there something commercially available to kill the quack grass ?

Answer 1

MSMA is a grassy weed control that works great. It can not be used in St. Aug or fescue. Put down pre-emergents in the fall. In Texas, we put down pre-emergents 4 times from October to March, but it never gets very cold here.

Answer 2

The only way is to use round up and reseed or pull it by hand.

Keep the grass short to keep it from spreading
