Now is the time to get rid of your Creeping Charlie problem. For small areas you can just use a metal claw and rake it out. For larger areas you will need to spray and you need to spray BEFORE itstops flowering. Once the Creeping Charlie stops flowering it develops a protective waxy that makes it resistant to herbicides. I use Ortho Weed B-gone. Anytime I use a chemical in the yard or garden my FIRST thought is the safety of my daughter and my dog. Which is why whenever possible I try to spray after both Edie & Earl are in for the night. That gives the chemical at least 8 hours to be absorbed.
Now is the time to get on it! Good Luck and Happy Gardening!
