Question: | "What can we use to keep Bermuda and wild grass from growing in sand bunkers? Is there a solution we can use for this?" |
Source of Question: | Tennessee |
Answer/Response: | "The cheapest weed killer of all is common salt, and this applied liberally will kill Bermuda or any other grass. Other substitutes used are mineral oils of various kinds, but these are highly undesirable in bunkers, as they will cake the sand. Another very common weed killer is sodium arseniteāprobably the most effective of all but more expensive than common salt, which should prove entirely satisfactory." |
