This stuff will knock down your dandelions

I run about 4oz per gallon of spray, you will see anything that is not grass shrivel up the next day. 2.5 gallons should last you a few seasons.

Should knock down your bamboo. 8oz per gallon of water.

Buy the concentrate and save over the pre-mix crap at lowes.

 

Rural king is just up the road. Spray this everywhere or just on the dandes?

the 2-4D you can spray anywhere you want to kill broad leafs, it wont hurt grass unless you mix it way strong or spray really heavy. Broad leafs includes trees/shrubs/flowers. You can spray around the base of trees, as long as you don't get it on the leaves. If it gets on the leaves of the flowers, they will get toasted as well.

Remember if you spray close to flowerbeds, the over-spray can get them as well, especially if its windy out.

I use weed and feed like brian described when the grass is damp. I also spot treat with I believe orthos dandelion spray with a back back sprayer. this seem to kill them and then the combo of weed and feed keeps them away for good. I have a hill side which used to be a sheet of gold. now I get about a dozen each spring, about it. it did take time. I would get a spray and target them as they pop up, then just do the normal healthy lawn stuff to get them from coming back, my .02.
