Default When is best time to spray lawns for clover?

It took me 7 years to completely eradicate clover from a place I previously
lived in. Spraying with Clover & Bindi killer for about 5 years then pulling
out the odd one that came up after that. It is a lifelong obsession (or
profession) getting on top of the old clover burr.


Are we talking about clover, the nitrogen-fixing legume, or some other plant?
Sounds like you are talking about two different plants.

The only good reason I can think of to remove clover is to have less bees on
the lawn when you have barefoot people around. If you sprinkle clover
liberally with sulphate of ammonia it will die of nitrogen poisoning.
