I have wild onions growing in a part of my lawn and the area seems to get bigger every year. When I start cutting grass in the spring I literally shed tears. I have to be careful if I try to spray them because I might kill the grass. I dont think spraying would work anyways because of the waxy surface of the plants. It would just bead up and roll off. Pulling them up would be impossible. They seem to die off during the summer but they are a nuisance in early spring. I have to mow the yard more times than necessary just to get rid of the onions. Anybody else have this problem?
