How do you get rid of dickweeds from your garden?

Lately I've been getting all these dickweeds sprouting up from nowhere. I get rid of one and another one shows up. How do I purge my garden of these pests.

How do you get rid of dickweeds from your garden?
Don't use roundup--it'll kill your grass too. Salt and boiling water also kill grass. Buy Bonide Clover Oxalis and Chickweed Killer or Ortho Weed*b*Gon MAX (not the reg. strength Weed*b*Gon). These are formulated to kill hard-to-kill weeds such as your dickweed. Used according to instructions, one treatment usually does the job. If it reappears from seed you may have to spray again and if this is the case, spray them before they have a chance to mature and make more seeds.
Reply:Have them arrested for trespassing

Reply:If you only have a few spots of them, you can kill them by pouring boiling water on them.


If you have a lot, use a herbicide like Roundup.
