We found above lawn-looking THING in our garden for awhile now and we
are tired of picking it out and putting new seed on.

Can somebody please identify what this is and recommand me what weed-
control chemicals I can use to kill just these instead of normal
lawns
surrounding it?

That looks like crab grass. If you pull out a clump does it look like
this?

If so, the best way to control it is just pull out the clumps when the
ground is moist. They come out quite easily. Crab grass is an annual
so next spring use a pre-emergent grab grass preventer/fertilizer. Be
sure to use it early because if the temperature hits a certain point
the seeds germinate and it is too late.

There are sprays for it but they've never worked well for me.
