Thanks for the information on how to kill dollar weeds naturally. I used all the methods suggested as a pilot in small portions of my yard; however, I would like to know how often I have to do this (every day)? and for how long? Do you have any idea as to when I will start seeing results? Thanks again for your help. D. Curtis
You will need to apply as often as it takes to rid the plants. This can be daily or weekly.

There are quite a few options to choose from, here! Some methods of control are natural, and some are chemical. It will be up to you to choose which methods suits you best.
My, personal, favorite is using boiling water. This will kill off most stubborn weeds, and will leave your soil perfectly usable after treatment.
