I loved the clover on my lawn when it first appeared, but now it has spread (unwanted) to my neighbour's lawn and I am mortified! Will watch this fully when able. ThanQ

We PURCHASE White clover seeds and apply them generously to the lawn, front and back... the cute little white flowers are a favorite of bees and other pollinators. Prosperity has often been referred to as resting in 'fields of clover'... They are a sign of good luck and good fortune.
Good on you. God bless you too. Bees are so awesome but most people have no idea and are just so obsessed with controlling EVERYTHING in their garden they don’t invite nature in it, and wonder why it gets sick.
much love...and I must be extremely fortunate because my entire yard is covered and the neighbors have none???however we've extended the play area for our kids and I'd rather not have my babies come screaming because their knee has become one with a honey bee horn
Our honey bees are gentle and kind - as they are true honey bees... As a favor you could plant Cat Mint father away from the children's play area. The delightful violet flowers are a favorite for all pollinators, especially so for the even more gentle bumble bees and small butterfly. Cat Mint blooms of lavender-blue, pink, violet, or white. Cat Mint has low fuzzy leaves, wonderfully sweet aromatic gray-green to medium green leaves with scalloped edges. Thrives in full sun to light shade. Blooms in the late spring to early summer long lasting flowers remaining till the fall. Suitable for a large flower pot or directly in the soil along the edges of the garden or property.
I have clover on my front lawn and for the first time this year I have left a patch of clover in the centre of the lawn and it looks really pretty like a mini meadow
I keep clover out of my front lawn but I allow it to grow mostly unchecked in the back yard. Gives us the benefits of clover and still lets us enjoy a weed free lawn out front.
Why do feel the pressure to keep the front “weed free” (though grass is a weed) Is it bc the neighbours that likely have little to no idea about what’s good or not for a garden, may frown upon a lawn filled with bee food clover??
Clover requires less mowing or no mowing, grows with very little moisture (uses a lot less water that normal lawns do) and stays green for most of the year and is great for the environment. Pollinators love it.
@@joephillips6634 No it doesn't lol, it's a nitrogen fixer and grows in clumps so actually fixes soil and crowds out real weeds, it literally also fertilises the lawn for you. Killing White Clover is literally a meme started by lawn/pesticide companies who want people to buy expensive fertilisers rather than just letting White Clover do it's thing. White Clover used to be ADDED to lawns on purpose for it's soil fixing, and fertilising properties before the lawn pesticide and fertilising products came out.
@@KironVB As someone who has white clover in his lawn and dogs, I can assure you that it becomes a mess and is not preferable to grass. I don't care about the soil, I care about the muddy mess
Add more white clover seeds. You want to rid your lawn of dead and dull grass blades. The field of flowers is a real treat to bees and other pollinators. Enjoy your symbol of success and wealth: Fields of Clover are good fortune and a Blessing.
Yeah, I haven't really noticed it much in past years, but the last week this year suddenly the whole front and back yard is full of it. Just got rid of all the dandelion last month and now I'm covered in White Clover.
I have to agree with you hank. Clover is a great, versatile plant. It fixes nitrogen which can help fertilize the yard. They are also low growing cover crops that stay short, unlike red clover or dandelions, making them easy to manage. Imo they are a great addition to any yard, just mow them like regular grass
@@laurabrandenburg414 same. I keep it around the tulips and other stressed areas. Have plenty more places for the pollinators. Just enjoy my little lawn.
I hate the white clover literally have 4-5 patches on my lawn that I’m struggling to get rid of my front yard already does not look commercial and the white clover is larger than in height than my actual grass living near a cow field is no help either
Why are there so many videos about it in the lawn? I don't have in my lawn it's taking over my flower beds and all round by pond. Nothing else grows there now because they've completely taken over!
Why on earth do people want to get rid of clover? It's one of the preferred plants for bees, it nitrogenates the soil, helps to prevent crabgrass, requires less mowing, is edible, and the list goes on. I'm adding white clover to my lawn.
Literally because of pesticide/lawn industry propaganda. It's a nitrogen fixer that fertilises your lawn, grows in clumps so fixes soil and crowds out actual weeds. Lawn companies used to add White Clover on purpose because it's a key part to any healthy lawn. When they brought out industrial fertilisers and pesticides, they realised they had products to a problem that didn't exist, hence, the propaganda campaign to make White Clover, "a weed" despite these same companies just a few years before had all lawn mixtures 5% Clover seed because of it's extremely positive properties.
@@azicc817 I still stand by my original response about the bees and kids......however I have a buddy who came out and helped put up a fence and made the comment several times about brining his wife over (who would be pissed) because I don't have an ounce of crab grass in my yard...BUT I have an over abundance of white clover and my grass is not dead....ALSO maybe it's due to the different regions and soil. My ground is up to four foot deep in clay (I stopped digging after that and did raised garden beds)...but yea I'm still unsure if I want to keep it (at least maybe not in the fenced in area)
Yes, they are pretty to look at and probably eatable, which I will look into. I love dandilion leaves for my tea and salades. I will transplant some clovers into my wild sections in the garden, but not in my lawn. No, thank you. I live in London, and although the pidgeons love the clovers and I've let them feast on them for a few weeks, but now its my time to take my lawn back. The pidgeons leave poo droppings the size of bjg slugs, and I want to do my 'earthing and grounding' in bare feet with a lot less poo's to tip toe through.. It's each having a garden that we enjoy being in. so its each to their own choices. That's what makes for individual happiness. 🎉
@@southsideshenanigans it's beneficial to the soil and it's edible and very healthy for you! You can eat the leaves and flower heads raw or make tea etc 😊
@@southsideshenanigans Clover attracts butterflies and other pollinators. It fixes nitrogen levels in the soil. Plus looking for four leaf clover give the kids something to do.
Not everyone lives in the same growing area. Clover doesn’t flower where I live and is a major invasive species. Kill it all with the harshest chemicals you can find:

Love ❤️ your comment
Thank you for teaching this dumys who wants to get rid of clover 🙏
Clovers are listed as an invasive species where I live. They choke out all other plant life. Not everyone lives in your hippy paradise.
Good on you. God bless you too. Bees are so awesome but most people have no idea and are just so obsessed with controlling EVERYTHING in their garden they don’t invite nature in it, and wonder why it gets sick.

This.
Clover requires less mowing or no mowing, grows with very little moisture (uses a lot less water that normal lawns do) and stays green for most of the year and is great for the environment. Pollinators love it.
It also becomes a muddy mess and allows soil erosion to occur
don't want my kids to become attacked by some honey bees while they play

Nice job. Short and sweet. Thumbs up
My huge lawn is now 90% white clover 🙈 I need to do this ASAP

A weed less lawn is a symbol of hard work and is also good luck. Kill all clover wherever you see it and plant Kentucky blue grass. Namaste 🙏
@@Spagghet "Kill all 'x' " and "Namaste" in the same sentence. Your irony is greatly appreciated. :P

Would some like trimec or triad select be better, worse or similar to a straight 2,4-D amine?
Never. Heard. Of. Top. Shot. !!

Yes, this is an ignorant video that wages war against biodiversity and promotes the myth of monoculture.
I'd love to!!!! but if my child gets hurt I go into war mode...and that's not good for anyone
I want a grass yard, not clover, maybe for borders or as a compliment, but not random messes in my grass!
The people that want clover in their grass don't know what a lawn is.
I hate the white clover literally have 4-5 patches on my lawn that I’m struggling to get rid of my front yard already does not look commercial and the white clover is larger than in height than my actual grass living near a cow field is no help either

Why would you want to kill this beautiful plant? It's not a weed, and it fertilizes your soil. Grass is much more of a weed than clover.
Clover is beautiful.
People should stop thinking green. Too many benefits for keeping it
Why on earth do people want to get rid of clover? It's one of the preferred plants for bees, it nitrogenates the soil, helps to prevent crabgrass, requires less mowing, is edible, and the list goes on. I'm adding white clover to my lawn.
Because I own a golf driving range and don’t want that rubbish anywhere near my grass including the stupid bees you can keep em for your self
kids...bees...you get the point

Wait, do you have to wear protective gears to spray pesticides??
God save me
wtf?
Have I been asleep? Since when are clovers bad or pests?
Don't clovers absorb nitrogen from air and spread it in the soil for other plants?
Yes you are right! Who the hell wanna remove clover from their yard? 😂
so my children don't sit on a honey bee and get stung

I love my clover lawn! Can't imagine why anyone would try to get rid of it! Please, save the environment and don't use these chemicals!
Its toxic to my cats who keep trying to eat it
Fyi ... That cockroach photo in your logo doesn't help you gain new customers.
Why would you want to get rid of clover??? I am over seeding my lawn with it.
why would anyone want to get rid of clover
My last dog of a cancer linked to pesticides. That crap should be banned.
I don’t need no stinking clover!
Clovers > grass
Do not remove clover
How come ? Just curious new home owner here

Thanks for the replies I’m leaving the clover patches. I kinda like how they look as long as they’re not the entire lawn. The bees like me 🐝
