I dont really do anything about weeds anymore. I let the dandelions do their things. I have some patches of crab grass but it doesnt bother me. The clover doesnt grow very high but when it is full bloom you can tell when it is walked on in high traffic. We have wild turkeys too and they will roost on the clover and it leaves imprints in the ground but it springs back after a day or so.
I couldn’t find a source for this, but I heard that we were convinced to think of dandelions as weeds by the makers of Roundup, so that we would accept the collateral damage.
Dandelions were brought to North America as a food crop. We can eat every part of the plant. They’re an invasive species, but not what I would consider a weed.

Anything can be a weed. All a weed is it a plant growing is the wrong spot in the eyes of a human.
Agreed, but Monsanto would love us to believe all kinds of plants are weeds so we buy their chemicals.
A field of dandelion flowers is beautiful.
