The wild onions are getting worse every year in my yard, and I don't even
like to eat or smell onions! (you wouldn't either if they caused you
problems.) The yard is an old centipede lawn, and I fertilize it every
year, but have avoided using weed killers on the lawn at all.

WHAT can I do that will reduce or better yet DESTROY those wretched
invaders? Would weekly mowing all winter keep them from thriving so they
would die off? Centipede is easier to kill than these darn things.

Please help!

P.S., I have some very late-hatched chicks in the brooder (hatched late Oct)
that are the beneficiaries of the late-sown mixed lettuce thinnings. They
just love tiny perfect mesclun greens. I am growing dinosaur kale this year
and hen-pecked mustard as well as the usual osaka purple mustard, mixed
rainbow kales, lettuces, and collards. Oh and some fancy cabbages. And am
trying some supposedly winter-flowering peas. And the patch of turnip
greens for my handyman's 84-yr old mother.
