How to Kill Clover With Spray

Unless you happen to find a four-leaf clover hiding in your yard, the clover you do have remains an unwelcome sight if you want a healthy yard. Clover is one of the most common weeds in a yard, so knowing how to deal with it remains important for creating a weed-free environment. Fortunately, chemical herbicides have come a long way in targeting weeds.

Mower
Herbicide
Water
Pressure sprayer
Grass seed

Instructions

- 1
  Mow over the clover-infected grass with your lawnmower. The ideal height of the grass is 2 to 3 inches.
- 2
  Pour the herbicide and water into a pressurized sprayer, filling with appropriate amounts as described on the herbicide container. Pressurize the sprayer by pumping the handle. Use a herbicide that has Dicamba or MCPP, as these are best for clover, according to the website Blades Lawn Care.
- 3
  Spray the area infected with clover on a day when rain is not forecast. You may need to make several dosages over several days to completely eradicate the clover.
- 4
  Plant grass seed over the area where the clover died. This will fill in dead patches and prevent clover from repopulating the area.
