Grass #137009

Asked June 26, 2013, 2:07 PM EDT

This weed is growing on the beach – it’s very tall grass. How can it be treated safely to remove it?

The photo shows so little of the grass that I can't tell what it is.  I have no idea of size or color.  But regardless of its name, you should not be using any herbicides next to the water.  That leaves hand-pulling.  Physical removal is the only thing that will be completely safe.  Cutting it off just gives you a short break until you cut it off again.
