Towards the end of summer, lawns can start to look very dry, pale and tired. Hot weather can take a toll, as can school holiday, party and pet traffic.
Keep an eye out for weeds like dandelions that may have crept into the lawn during summer. If you have just a few weeds in a kikuyu or couch lawn, ready to use Yates® Weedkiller for Lawns is a handy spot spray herbicide for controlling common broadleaf weeds, but if you have more weeds than lawn, a simple hose-on application of Yates® Weed’n’Feed® enables large areas to be treated in just a few minutes. If you have a buffalo lawn, use buffalo safe Yates® BuffaloPro® Weed’n’Feed.
Before using a herbicide in summer, to prevent damaging the lawn water the lawn well (so the soil is moist and the lawn is not suffering from moisture stress), allow the foliage to dry and then apply the herbicide in the cool of the early evening.
