Learn About Lawn Weed Spurge

Spurge

Spurge is a perennial plant that leaks a milky fluid when broken. There are several types of spurge including spotted spurge, which has a redder stem and a purple spot on each leaf. Spurge creates seeds below the mower’s blades so getting control is important.

Control: Spurge is easily killed using Ortho Weed-B-Gon or Bayer Advanced All-in-One Lawn Weed Killer. These chemicals will not damage the lawn grasses when used properly.

As with all broad-leaved weeds, spray in between mowing and do not water for several days.
