So the local garden store said this mixed would work. I was going to get Bonide's MSMA but this is all they had. Anyone used this Herbi-Oil stuff before with MSMA?

I would strongly suggest you google the label for that adjuvant and read the application and what chemicals it is suggested to be mixed with. I didn't see where MSMA was an option.

For no more area than you are going to cover with that bottle of MSMA, I'd just use dish detergent and save the oil.
If the lawn in question is your back yard that you posted pictures of in the maintenance and renovation section, you might want to be using metsulfuron, simazine or Image. It looked like you had alot of rye and poa growing in your bermuda.
Unless you are seeing crabgrass and dallisgrass already, it is too early for the MSMA. Spraying broadleafs of winter grasses with MSMA is useless.

Whitey: I'm not for hire in the lawn care business that's for sure. I'm a NOOB

I am attaching a picture so others can see. Yes, My plan on the POA is let it burn out with summer heat and then begin using proper pre-emergents like dimension. Nobody took care of my yard for a year which is why it's so infested.
