What kills weeds in the grass fast?

• <div><p>The quickest way to kill weeds is to burn them, pour boiling water on them, or pull them out by hand. Each of these methods works instantaneously. Beyond that, using <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/vinegar-grass.htm">vinegar for grass</a> works in a couple of hours, as do herbicides you can buy at the store. The slowest way to kill weeds is to starve them of nutrients and sunlight with mulch or fabric covers. </p></div>

Q: Can I use herbicide to kill the roots of a neighbor’s tree?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s not legal to intentionally damage a neighbor&rsquo;s tree. Even if the roots of a tree encroach into your yard, if you damage or kill a tree that belongs to your neighbor, you can be held liable for the damage in most cases. Since herbicides can spread through the tree, causing damage to the whole tree and not just the roots that are on your side of the property line, you shouldn&rsquo;t poison your neighbor&rsquo;s tree. The other downside to this method is that if the tree dies, it can fall onto your property and cause more damage, so herbicides are best avoided in this circumstance.</p></div>

Q: What kills clover but not the grass?

• <div><p>Purchase a selective herbicide that targets clover and similar weeds but doesn't take out your grass. You can also keep it from growing with corn meal gluten or remove clover from your lawn manually at the start of the season as part of your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/lawn-maintenance-checklist.htm">lawn maintenance checklist</a>.</p></div>

Q: Is Johnsongrass hard to kill?

• <div><p>Yes, Johnsongrass is a hard weed to kill. It has the ability to grow fast and spread even quicker, so it requires a detailed plan and thorough application to eliminate it. The best plan of action is to kill Johnsongrass while the weed is establishing itself by <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/hire-lawn-service-5-signs-good-lawn-care-company.htm">hiring a lawn care professional</a> or following the steps above. </p></div>

Q: Will mowing kill clover?

• <div><p>Mowing a lawn will, unfortunately, not get rid of clover, and it may even encourage it to flourish. Let your lawn grow to a healthy height of over 3 inches and then set your mower blades no lower than this level. Higher grass will cut out the light that clover loves and discourage it from spreading.</p></div>
