If you’re dreaming of a vibrant green lawn, you may be looking to stop and remove clover. Some clover varieties, like white clover, can spread aggressively across your lawn and it can be problematic if you want to maintain clear boundaries between your lawn and flower beds.
Here is our guide on how you can remove clover from your lawn:
-
Lawn aeration
The good news is that a healthy lawn with thick, established grass naturally outcompetes clover for resources. However, compacted soil hinders grass growth, giving clover an advantage.
Therefore, our lawn aeration treatment is essential. By punching little holes in the turf, it improves air and water flow to the roots. This ensures your grass gets all the nutrients it needs from below the surface.
-
Moss and thatch control
A layer of moss and thatch can prevent healthy grass growth and damage your lawn, creating the perfect conditions for clover to grow.
We have a Moss and thatch control treatment, which improves the drainage of your soil, controls weeds and makes your lawn more resilient to wear and tear.
-
Mowing technique
Cutting your lawn regularly at the correct height will encourage healthier growth from root to tip. Clover tends not to grow as tall as grass, but don’t be tempted to mow shorter in an attempt to remove it. You put more strain on your grass and the clover will take over any bare patches that develop.
-
Remove by hand
If the clover is in a smaller area of your lawn, it can be easier to remove by hand. For small clover patches, you can carefully hand-pull the plants, ensuring you remove the entire root system.
-

Our weed response treatment is an effective solution to target clover on your lawn as well as help fend off a wide range of unsightly lawn weeds.
