You can try a more selective control and use repeat applications, 7 to 10 days apart. Here's a link to one of the better retail herbicides for the hard to kill variety's. http://tinyurl.com/gsg6 Good luck. -- GO# 40 ------------------------------------------------------------- http://NewsReader.Com/ 50 GB/Month |

Easier on the ground worms and baby birds to just dig the violets
out or crowd them out with new grass seed/sod. Herbicides will prevent your using grass clippings in your compost .. . "Peter H" wrote in message ble.rogers.com... wrote in message ...
