For some reason, my lawn has been taken over by dandelions this year. I
have tried spraying weed killer (Ortho: the type that you hook with the
water hose and spray with water), but that doesn't seem to help.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I found Scotts turf plus 2 does a good job on them.

Now ground ivy is a whole OTHER serious problem....


I've had the best luck killing creeping charlie by fluffing it up with a
steel rake before I mow, so the lawnmower gets it. I also pull some of
it by hand. Chemicals don't seem to bother it much. I haven't tried
Trimec yet because I haven't had to. Raking and mowing works
surprisingly well.
