I have a bad clover problem here in the DC area. As much as I
hate to use chemicals, I may have to. We are planning to take

Would I do damage to my grass if I sprayed a weedkiller on
right before we left, so as to minimize our exposure to it?

What is wrong with clover? What catastrophe would ensue if you
had clover in your lawn?

well, it's low growing so you don't have to mow as often, it has
flowers that the bees really love, and it doesn't brown out too badly
if it's dry & a tiny bag (half pound) of seed covers 7000 square
foot. horrible stuff, clover...

Some weird folks eat it. Whew!!!
