Over seeding is one of the best things you can do. It thickens your lawn and helps to control weeds. Fertilizing will also help.

Has too much time on their hands
Keep grass high and thicken it up with over seeding, this will choke the weeds. Air rate and put a top dressing of top soil and seed. I always mix a couple of bags of sheep or cow poop with the soil to fertilize it.

You can buy the Weed B Gone concentrate at Home Depot. Over seeding - for the most part I just run the spreader over the entire lawn, spring or fall or both. What you described works well for trouble areas but lightly seed the "gòod" lawn too in order to thicken it up and choke out weeds.
All that being said, sometimes it feels like it's a losing battle...haha!

Well... that and as much water as you're willing to spend on it and the time spent pulling other stubborn stuff.
Don't forget 4x with fertilizer!

Go talk to any farmers you know
Ask them for a liter of( three way. ) Or (par3)
It gets sprayed right on the grass and kills all the weeds..
Only way go.

Thanx Dutch-once i got some ,a while ago , from a friends old stash..........I am urban,and even thought have no direct neighbors but one,i live in the middle of the city.
The stuff had specific strong smell........... Since my "backyard" is a Baseball diamond,many people come there thru the summer,park in front of my house ,i never dared to use the stuff.
I was just never sure if someone would rat me out...........
ps-i had bad experience about being ratted out-had a dog many years ago,lived in a super insulated doghouse ,with a large cage for running,in my backyard,fully healthy and taken care of. Because it was outside,i had Humane Society in my house every 2-3 months,(the dog barks,does the dog get enough exercise,does the dog has potable water, is the doghouse suitable for the dog in the winter.........)until i just did not have enough of it,and gave the dog away.

Scott's Weed and Feed with Grub Killer - bought 3 bags of it last spring when I was in Buffalo. On my last bag........seems that it is the only thing that works on grubs.
