Complete elimination of the grass in your yard is impossible, but it is possible to control the spread of marsh grass to prevent its growth in the future. The easiest method to get rid of marsh grass is to use an herbicide. In addition, marsh grass needs sunlight to grow, so blocking the sunlight in any way will inhibit its growth and spread. If necessary, the grass can also be dug out and uprooted to stop growth. Because marsh grass thrives in wet and soggy areas, keeping soil warm and dry will help prevent the growth of marsh grass. Also, if cattle are nearby, cattle will eat marsh grass and control its growth and spread.

I think it's actually Bahia.. I have for years thought people were saying Mahayana or Maheya. Recently I found out it was actually Bahia grass. Google that and you will find your answer. :)
It should blend in with it :)
There habit is water and grass
Yes. Products containing Atrizine should not be used on Bahia Grass.
There is not really any weed control out there that will kill one type of grass and not the other. If you want to get rid of Bahia grass in St. Augustine, you best bet is to spray the areas of Bahia grass with Roundup (the ready to use kind with the blue sprayer). Avoid as much of the St. Augustine as you can as Roundup is non selective, and then in the bare areas left by the dead Bahia grass you can put new St. Augustine in 7 days later. If the bare areas left are not too large, you can fertilize the St. Augustine encouraging it to spread into the bare areas.
Fire (never recommended) would destroy any grass above ground but would have no effect on its root system. Bahia grass grows best in sandy or dry soil, which is why it's so popular in sandy coastal regions. One of the surest ways to kill bahia grass is to drown it by keeping the soil consistently moist until it dies back.
Pampas grass is considered one of the tallest grasses, as it can grow up to 10 feet in height. It is native to South America and is known for its feathery plumes and tall, upright growth habit.
According to the Feed Table link below, Bahia grass hay has a CP (crude protein) percentage of 6% and a UIP (Undegradable Intake Protein) of 37%. Bermudagrass coastal hay, on the other hand, as CP% of 10% and UIP of 20%; Bermudagrass Hay has 10% CP and 18% UIP. So, in summary, Bermuda has a higher protein percentage than Bahia, however as far as bypass protein is concerned, Bahia is higher. See the Understanding Feed Analysis link below for more on how to interpret the feed table.
Saint Augustine is the best grass for Florida, but you can't seed for it. You have to either use plugs or lay sod. Bahia will grow from seeds, but it sprouts really fast and then splits into stalks at the top within the week. You actually have to mow more than once a week with Bahia.
St. Augustine grass is good for horses, but it doesn't repopulate very quickly. The best option for horses is Tifton 9 Bahia.
In South Florida May and June are the best months to seed with Bahia. Although it is very drought tolerant, once a month watering in the winter is good if it hasn't rained much.
