What is the best spray for clover in the lawn?

lawn weeds
Common lawn sprays such as Weed B-Gone and 2,4-D are not very effective in controlling Clover. A special Weed B-Gone for chickweed, clover and oxalis is more effective than 2,4-D or regular Weed B-Gone. A lawn weed killer containing Banvel or dicamba would work good but be careful when using this material in an area with tree & shrub roots.

Can I use FASST™ to spray my lawn?

Frequently Asked Questions about exempt weed killer
FASST™ is non-selective. It will kill or damage grass, weeds and foliage that it comes in contact with. If you spray large portions of your lawn in an attempt to kill weeds you will cause browning and damage to large lawn areas. FASST should be used for spot treatment of weeds such as dandelions on lawns. Care should be taken to keep the spray nozzle close to the weed and minimize over spray.

The temperature should not be below freezing when you apply LiquidZinc® or for 2-3 days prior to application. The roof should be dry so that LiquidZinc® will coat the roof better. It is best that it not rain for at least 24 hours after application. Don't spray when it is windy since too much product will end up in places other than the roof.
