Fall spraying advised to curb dandelions says county agent

County Extension Director Jim Ker urges homeowners to spray for dandelions this fall rather than May or June. A full 2 4 D application on a warm day can improve control with less risk to ornamentals, with guidance to use amine forms and follow label directions for coverage and safety. A second treatment in two weeks may tackle resistant weeds, though full results appear after two to three weeks as temperatures cool.
