How To Remove Creeping Charlie

Question From: C. Higgins - MICHIGAN
Q: Is there any way to rid your yard of Creeping Charlie that doesn't involve eradicating the yard? P.S I grow Mammoth Sunflowers to feed the squirrels and birds. I like to feel I've fed em up to either migrate or just make it through the winter.Not everyone wants them gone....:)

A:

Use a weed killer that contains 2-4-D and dicamba in early October. You may need to repeat in Spring when the plants flower. Best and Happy Yardening to you and your squirrels, Nancy
