I've had some success with Bayer Advanced Bermuda Grass Control for Lawns.
I'm in Hutchinson, BTW. Fescue lawn. |

you need to know what the rest of your lawn is to find a product that will kill the Bermuda but not the rest. Tilling only makes it worse.

It's a bitch to get rid of, that's for sure. Unfortunately, your tilling likely is the culprit - when you till, you're cutting the roots into smaller pieces, but not eliminating them. Which is why it came back.
You're going to need something stronger than Roundup - a selective herbicide that won't damage the other type of grass in your lawn - maybe something like Atrazine or Ornamec. |

Ornamec is supposed to be good, but you have to know what the rest of your lawn is.

Just give in and have a bermuda lawn? It's drought resistant as hell.
My main gripe with our bermuda back yard is its tendency to run into our beds.
