How can I rid my lawn of a horrible, spreading weed?

💡 Our Advice

The weed you sent in, with hairy, fern-like leaves, is yarrow and it prefers dry, poorly-nourished soils. Feeding the lawn regularly will make the weed grow more upright, so it can be chopped off by the lawnmower. Use 3in1 Lawn Treatment from Doff or Evergreen Complete from Scott's.
