I live in Wisconsin, and have neighbors on 3 sides of me that have what I call creeping charlie which seemingly wants to take over my lawn. What can I do?

What have your lawn care habits been like? You don't have it right now, right?

Put a bit of sunshine in each day;
Others need its cheer and so do you-
Need it most when outer sky's dull gray
Leaves the sunshine-making yours to do.

I have alot of creeping charlie in my yard also so I would be very interested in hearing what natural methods would work on it. Is it a matter of ammending the soil and planting new grass? About 4 years ago I had a lawn service work on my lawn and the creeping charlie was killed out pretty much. Well it is back again and I do not want to use chemical treatments on my lawn ever again.

Mary Louise,

(sorry for the delay in response - interenet trouble)

What have your lawn care practices lately?
