How do I control wild strawberry (Fragaria virginiana) in a home lawn in Alexandria County Virginia?
Date of Correspondence: May 12, 2004 Recommendation: Repeat treatment of herbicides that contain the active ingredients 2,4-D, dicamba, MCPP, and triclopyr. At least two of the aforementioned chemicals should be contained in the active ingredient list of any trade name product for use as a broadleaf weed killer in the lawn. Check your local hardware store for such products and follow the label recommendations.
