Lawn Look Like
An Onion Patch?
u. ID. Specialist
Offers Control Tips

Does your lawn look like an on
ion patch? If it does, you've got
company, says William H. Michel,
extension agronomist at the Univer
sity of Delaware. Thousands of
lawns are now covered with un-
slightly wild onions and garlic.
Moving the tops off these pests
will make your lawn look better
but it won't solve your problem,
according to Mitchell.
The weeds are hardy critters and
won't be discouraged easily. Spray
ing with 2,4-D is the permanent
Milford chronicle., 1961-05-05

solution, Mitchell declares. Apply
2,4-D ester mixed with enough
water to cover 1000 square feet of
lawn in a coarse spray. If the
spray is too fine, it may be carried
by the wind to other plants that
you don't want to kill. A watering
can, hose spTayer or napsack
sprayer will do the job.
This first spraying will kill all
the wild onion plants above the gro
und but be prepared for a new
onslaught this fall or next spring.
This new crop will hatch from the
onion bulbs buried in the soil. To
eliminate these bulbs, you have to
spray your lawn for to years.
Then you should have the problem
licked.
