The ability of dandelion to survive in various conditions cannot but amaze.
However, for summer residents this weed can become a real problem.

Ways to get rid of dandelion
The hardest part about controlling this weed is that even constant mowing won't help. The cut plants still continue to spread seeds.
Therefore, the most effective method of control is digging up the rhizome, and this will have to be done constantly.
If you mow the weed, you need to do it 1-2 times a week, and cut the plants at the very ground and immediately remove all the cut plants. After a few weeks of such manipulations, the weed will give up.
In the case of a lawn, it is recommended to use a herbicide for dicotyledonous plants, which will destroy dandelions without harming other plants.
