The first step in controlling weeds is to identify what type of weeds are growing in your lawn. Weeds are indicators of problems, therefore, it is important to find out why they are growing and fix the problem. Remember herbicides do not offer permanent protection against weed regrowth. If the above measures are not effective, consult with an expert at a garden center for herbicides available. Before using pesticides, consult the Backyard Bug Brigade Brochure which contains information on safe pest control.
Spot treat by applying a herbicide only to the weedy areas.
Always use a registered domestic class pest control product labelled for weed control and carefully follow the label directions .
