Pre-emergent applications for Turf areas

I have seen so much crab grass taking over bermuda lawns recently.  Take note of this now so that when winter is over  a  pre-emergent weed control program for your turf can be put into practice prior to the warm days of spring when crab grass will start to reappear.   There are several liquid weed control chemicals  available.  We always think of pre-emergent weed control in our decomposed granite planting areas in the Phoenix Metro area but seldom do we think about pre-emergent applications for our turfgrasses.  If your lawn is getting crowded out by weeds now then this is definitely something to start thinking about so you are ready for next year!
