Weed seeds are present just about everywhere and they can be dispersed by wind, water, animals, soil amendments, poor quality grass seed, and lawn and garden equipment. So even if you’ve been diligent about spraying your lawn with a pre emergent so you never have weeds, the little buggers are pretty persistent, so being vigilant about your weed control is important.
Using a post emergent herbicide properly can control existing weeds, but they require activation and carefully controlled application conditions for the best results. Applying them too late or too early is basically a waste of time and the herbicide.
Post emergent herbicides either attack the foliage or seep down to the roots of the weed. They come in either a spray or as granules. Young, actively growing weeds are easier to kill than mature weeds, which might require repeat applications in order to get rid of them.
