Common lawn weeds such as cape weed, wild carrot weed, catsear, lambs tongue, white clover, oxalis, bindii, winter grass, summer grass, dandelions, chickweed and nutgrass fall into two types or weeds, grass-like ones and broadleaf ones. Weeds tend to grow in lawns that are patchy or stressed. A well-known and loved product is Yates Weed ‘n Feed, a hose on or granular product that kills weeds and fertilises the lawn simultaneously. There is even a Weed ‘n Feed product for use on Buffalo lawns!

The majority of lawn weeds can be controlled effectively by removing them manually or using a selective herbicide. For small lawns, hand removal is quick and effective, but for large lawns, applying a selective broadleaf herbicide is quicker and easier. The trick is knowing which type of lawn you have and choosing a compatible product so only the weeds are killed and not the surrounding grass. Our knowledgeable staff can help you to find the right product so come in see us in the nursery section at Peards Complex Albury.

Lawns under stress can be prone to lawn diseases or pest outbreaks. Mancozeb Plus is a powdered fungicide that can be diluted and watered on using a watering can or sprayer with an agitator to help manage fungi, fusarium patch, black spot, brown patch, lawn rust, black spot, powdery mildew and other lawn diseases.

Common lawn pests include lawn army worms, white curl grubs, African black beetle, mole crickets, cutworms, and ants. Products such as Yates Grub Kill and Protect granules, Natures Way Dipel and Rich Gro Bug Killa are available in store to help keep your lawn pest free.

During the warmer months, irrigating lawn areas can play a key role in lawn care. The easiest and cheapest way to water your lawn, without having to spend time hand watering with a hose, is to purchase a portable sprinkler. We have a range of sprinkler designs to suit most lawn areas and budgets. For more complex lawn irrigation set ups and needs, the irrigation section at Peards Nursery Albury everything you need.
