Weed -n- Feed is no longer available for sale in NFLD. Government
passed legislation last fall to ban it. They said the chemical
combination of a Fertilizer and an Herbicide is bad for the fish in
ponds lakes and streams. Seems its O.K. though, to fertilize and use
herbicide separately ... go figure. Never ceases to amaze me the
infinite wisdom of the almighty government
Meanwhile, Killex will work on a hose end sprayer,(to spray over the
whole lawn) and will kill all broad leaf weeds (including clover), but
will leave the ryegrass, fescue and kentucky Blue unharmed. Better
hurry tho, many places are selling out of Killex. quickly.
Hope this helps
