Dithiopyr is a chemical used as an preemergent herbicide used to prevent crabgrass seeds from sprouting in the spring.^[1] Dithiopyr may alter microtubule polymerization and stability by "interacting with microtubule associated proteins and/or microtubule organizing centers rather than interaction directly with tubulin."^[2]

It is an ingredient in many products including Dimension (herbicide) <sm>(a brand name)</sm> from Monsanto.^[3]

Both of these chemicals work well and are long-lasting, so they stop crabgrass throughout the summer."
