The main active ingredient is 24-D which has a solid reputation in selective weed control.
Tools Needed

Q:Can this product be used safely on warm season crp grasses?6/8/23A:2,4-D LV6 Herbicide does not specify if it can be used on either warm-seasoned or cool-seasoned turf. However it does state not to use on golf greens nor on dichondra or other broadleaf herbaceous ground covers. Do not use on creeping grasses such as bent and St. Augustine except for spot treating, nor on newly seeded turf until grass is well established. If unsure, it would be best to spray a small area and watch for discoloration or any other damages within the next 7 days.
