Lawn Weed Control

Why You'll Love Yates' Range of Lawn Weed Control Products

When weeds start to take hold, your lawn can go from soft and lush, to rough and uncomfortable. Getting rid of weeds before they start to flower and set seed is best.

Non-selective herbicides can kill the lawn, as well as the weeds you want to get rid of, but selective herbicides can target certain weeds you’re trying to control such as broadleaf weeds or Winter Grass.

Which Selective Lawn Weed Control is Right for Me?

Yates Weed ‘n’ Feed Granular helps control large areas of broadleaf weeds such as Thistles and Dandelion. Keeping your grass healthy at the same time as eradicating weeds is essential, which is why Weed ‘n’ Feed also contains fertiliser with nutrients nitrogen and iron to encourage the growth of lush green leaves, strengthen grassroots, and promote a deep, green colour. Best applied before weeds flower and set seed, it’s safe to use on Couch, Kikuyu and Queensland Blue Couch grasses. Just sprinkle the granular formula on your lawn every eight weeks (as needed) to keep broadleaf weeds at bay.

Yates Weed 'n' Feed Hose-On formula also contains a wetting agent for improved spray coverage and leaf penetration, making it work quickly and effectively. The hose-on formula contains two herbicides that are absorbed by the weeds and transferred to the roots, controlling them within four weeks.

To get rid of broadleaf weed without giving your lawn extra feed or to spot spray, use Yates Bindi & Clover Weeder Concentrate. This economical liquid contains two selective weedkillers that can be sprayed across lawns to get rid of a range of broadleaf weeds.

Yates Weedkiller for Lawns Spot Spray is an easy-to-use spray that targets individual or small areas of sprouting weeds such as Lamb’s Tongue (Plantatins), Wireweed, Capeweed, Docks (Sorrel) and Creeping Oxalis in lawns.

Get rid of Winter Grass with Munns Professional Winter Grass Killer. In an easy hose-on formula, it kills off young seedlings and prevents Winter Grass from growing again. It’s safe to use on many common lawns, including Buffalo.

Buffalo grasses can be more weed-resistant than other varieties of lawn, but Bindii, Dandelion, Clover and Thistles can still grow. Buffalo grass is more sensitive to herbicides than other types of lawns. Yates’ range of selective lawn weed control products are designed especially for Buffalo grass to control weeds while keeping your grass look green and lush.

The Buffalo formulation contains iron and nitrogen to promote strong lawn root growth, and high Potassium to improve the turgor of Buffalo's wider leaf.
