The most common clover that homeowners deal with is white clover. This weed grows in patches that get as tall as 8 inches in height. White clover is a broadleaf weed that’s recognizable for its three ovular, or teardrop-shaped, leaves. If you’re lucky, you might find one with four leaves. Each leaf features a white stripe that runs from one side to the other. Other common clover species that grow in larger spaces include red clover, which grows as tall as 20 inches and has narrower leaves, and sweet clover, which grows tall stalks of white or yellow flowers.

Check your lawn or garden beds for any unwanted patches of white clover. Be on the lookout for their broad leaves and white flower heads. Clover is a perennial cool-season broadleaf weed and will grow best during spring and fall when the weather is mild. Be sure to note where you’ve spotted any patches of white clover, as you’ll treat these patches directly.

To kill established white clover, use a post-emergent herbicide like TopShot Weed Killer. TopShot is a selective herbicide, which means it can be applied to most lawns to kill weeds without harming the grass. TopShot can be applied with a hand pump sprayer or a hose end sprayer, but we recommend you use a one-gallon hand pump sprayer to make spot applications to clover patches quick and easy.

If you have a larger piece of property that sees Red or Sweet Clover, use 2,4-D Amine. 2,4-D Amine is a powerful post emergent herbicide that’s great for covering large, commercial spaces.

To keep clover from growing back, you can use a pre-emergent herbicide like Isoxaben 75WG to stop clover and other weeds from sprouting. Isoxaben 75WG is a long-lasting selective herbicide that’s labeled to target broadleaf weeds without harming labeled turfgrasses, including fescue and St. Augustine grass. This is a water dispersible granule that must be mixed with water to be applied. Use a hand pump sprayer to apply your completed solution.
