Reply:It,s very hard to get rid of without a "lawn service", I have pulled them up/out by hand after a good rain fall(as it is much easier then) , but they have underground roots so its almost a never ending job, so I would suggest a lawn service to do the job. another thought tho is they do make a "hardy" ground cover.
Reply:Any broadleaf weed killer with trimec will work. Read the label carefully. It needs to be spread under the proper temperatures. It may not get it all the first year, but probably 70%. I used Bayer last year and I will be using it again this June. As I said, read the label, or ask a pro at a garden center or greenhouse NOT HOME DEPOT OR LOWE'S
Reply:I've tried round-up and stuff, but it keeps coming back. Pulling it seems to work the best, but it is time consuming and endless.





Good luck getting rid of it, since it seems to be here to stay :(
