WEEDS IN THE LAWN
*Note that “Weed & Feed” products containing 2,4-D are no longer available.
*Note that herbicides that control dandelions and other weeds in lawns have NOT been banned, only those in combination with Fertilizers.
Chemical weed killers containing 2,4-D but without the “Feed” are still available for use on your lawn. Products we carry include
- Scotts Ortho Killex
- Lawn WeedOut (Wilson)
A selective weed killer without 2,4-D is also available:
Synthetic-chemical free fertilizers with corn gluten are being sold in place of “Weed & Feed” but it should be noted that corn gluten is NOT a weed killer. Corn gluten acts as a pre-emergence herbicide meaning it prevents new weeds from germinating but does not kill existing weeds.
