| Dandelions' seeds can easily spread in the springtime breezes. Before long, your yard can be overrun. |
Raising your lawn mower's blade to 2.5 inches is a great way to combat the problem, as a lush lawn can repeal weeds easier. |
The next step to fight the spread
of dandelions and other weeds is to use a weed
and feed product, which is used with a fertilizer
spreader. |

| The appropriate spreader setting can be found on the back of the fertilizer bag. |
Set the dial on the spreader to correspond with the specified setting. |
Fill the spreader with enough fertilizer to cover your yard, as specified on the bag. |

| An edge guard helps to send the fertilizer where you need it, and keeps it out of your flower beds and driveway. |
With the edge guard enabled, start by fertilizing the perimeter of your yard first, and then work your way towards the center. |
Make sure that you apply the fertilizer when the yard is wet. This ensures maximum absorption and effectiveness. |
