Product Information

When buying partner items like this one, your contract of sale will be with our Range Plus Partner instead of us. You spend time tending to your flowers and pruning your bushes – everything’s looking lovely – until you spot an uninvited plant springing from the lawn. On closer inspection, you notice that there’s more than just one pesky weed – it’s akin to an invasion!

I didn’t use it across my whole lawn because I was very wary of killing my grass, so I tried 2 metres by 2 metres which seemed like a fair compromise! An effective way to carry out scarification is to use a rake designed for the job. This is an easy way to remove moss and thatch and is ideal for smaller lawns. A1: The herbicide mix stimulates the broad leafed weed hormones to make the plant cells grow faster than they are capable of sustaining leading to cell wall collapse and death leaving the grass growing when applied in accordance with the instructions. Granular weed killer is dry – small pellets overlaid with herbicide. The pellets can be applied to the area via spreaders, such as those mentioned previously the EverGreen Easy Spreader Plus and the EverGreen Handy Spreader. The granular weed killer can effectively control pesky weeds such as clover and buttercups. With the scarification process, you will be removing a large volume of thatch, that is debris such as moss and grass cuttings, and you may find that afterwards the lawn may look very bare.Once the weedkiller is in the water you just need to shake it up and they apply it over 10 square metres of lawn.

When I mowed after using it the clippings had to be left on the lawn. Following this, the next three lots of clippings need composting for at least 9 months and can’t be disposed of through council schemes.

We like the fact that the Miracle-Gro Evergreen Complete 4in1 can guard against heat and drought whilst helping your grass to soak up vital nutrients. We’re also a fan of Elixir Gardens Complete Lawn – Weed, Feed and Moss Killer / Lawn Green Up which is deemed as easy to spread and effective. So, the scarification process is a mechanical one that will remove excessive thatch in an aggressive manner for the lawn to regrow stronger.

It still shouldn’t be used near ponds and has to be kept away from pets and children until dry so it needs some care, but if you want to help out pollinators this is a better choice than weedkillers with glyphosate – if you replace those flowering weeds with nectar-rich flowers of your own of course! Whilst not as simple as ready-mix pump-action weedkillers this is still easy to apply. It comes in a small bottle of concentred liquid that needs dilution. The ratio is 15 mls to 1 litre in a sprayer or 5 litres of water in a watering can. Weedol kills weed roots but it’s a slow burner. If you’re impatient this isn’t for you. However, Weedol says just one application a year is needed to control lawn weeds and you can’t complain about that. While this is possible, it’s not recommended that you carry out scarifying in summer or in the winter months of December, January and February.You might have to repeat the treatment if weeds are well established, but you will need to leave a 6-week period between each use. You can apply using a watering can or a sprayer (thoroughly wash out whichever you use afterwards). The best weed killers for lawns in the UK – The warmer weather is (hopefully) looming ever closer, providing us all with the opportunity to spend more time outdoors. I was under the impression that weedkillers killed anything growing plus insects and fish, but this seems a bit gentler because it doesn’t contain any glyphosate.
