How to Identify
White Clover

White clover is a low-growing weed characterized by its three trifoliate egg-shaped leaf stems and white flowering nodesIt can be difficult to remove because it can adapt to different soil types. 

You’ll find this creeping weed in the weak parts of your lawn because it has less competition against grass.

How to Prevent
White Clover

To control and remove white clover, there are two options: hand weeding and herbicide application.

  • If you decide to hand pull this weed, it’s important to remove as much of the roots as possible so it doesn’t return.
  • If the weed is taking over larger parts of your yard, apply a non-selective or three-way herbicide in the early fall.

The team at Grass Master can take matters into their hands and help prevent white clover on your lawn.
