or not? And how do I kill the stuff that is in my lawn. Roundup did a great job on this where it borders the grass. It was about 18 inches tall there. I have a lesco spreader and a solo sprayer.
Thanks

No. Virginia Creeper grows and looks similar to Poison Ivy only it has 5 leaves instead of the 3 that poison ivy has. That looks very similar to what we call dayflower with some oxalis thrown in for fun.

The more I look at that the less I think it's dayflower...not sure...sorry. Definitely not Virginia Creeper though.

You have Cool Season grass. I'll let the guys who deal with that give you info on the best way to control it,oxalis and wild violet...Here on warm season grass, Manor would knock out all 3

I agree with dayflower. Try some Trimec or momentum to control it along with your oxalis and wild violet peeking through there
