Are you talking about grassy weeds or broadleaf weeds?

I don't service zoysia in my area but if you went to your local hardware store or nursery there should be herbicides available to treat the lawn for broadleaf weeds. I actually have had a couple of customers in the past that I sprayed their lawns with dicamba,mecaprop and mcpa and had no problems. Just use it on the lighter side. You can also spray the lawn when it is dormant and the weeds are still growing without any harm to the lawn.

Buy Trimac or Lesco 3-way. You'll need a sprayer and will need to calibrate it. If you need help, send me a private message. Per the label, you need to put down 3/4 oz of product, mixed with water, per 1000 sq ft. For example, my backpack sprayer, at the speed I walk, puts down 2 gallons of spray per 1000 sq ft. Therefore, I'd mix 3/4 oz of product in two gallons of water to spary 1000 sq ft of lawn.
