GO AFTER HARD TO CONTROL LAWN WEEDS NOW

Fall is an excellent time for broadleaf weed control for those species which are perennial or winter annuals. This would include two of the hardest to control weeds in lawns – ground ivy (creeping charlie) and violets. These weeds are preparing for spring growth by moving nutrients into their root systems. If weed control is applied the herbicide will be moved into the root system along with the nutrients. The leaves of the weeds might not curl up and turn brown like they do in the summer, but there will be a lot less of these weeds popping up in your lawn next spring.
