removing grassy weeds from clover patch
 
I'm growing a small patch of clover in my back yard. I want the area to
be consistantly clover, but many grassy weeds have surfaced. There are
enough of them that digging out their roots would significantly damage the
clover crop. How else can I get rid of them without destroying the
surrounding clover?

Thanks,
Adam

The easiest way is to don thick rubber gloves, dip your gloved hands in a
bucket of Roundup, and then gently draw the blades through your gloved
hands.

I'm concerned about using toxins because the clover is for my rabbits to
eat. How long after applying the Roundup would I need to wait before
letting my rabbits play in the area?

Approximately 10 days after the plants have died back.
