I’m caught between feeling like I’m doing something wonderful for nature due to being a complete slattern and not caring for the grass properly. And understanding the garden has become a no go area for my four year old who has been stung twice in as many days and now won’t go out there at all as he’s scared.
How should I handle this? I’m sure in the past we shook something on the grass that was a mixture of weed killer and grass seed. We are due to go on holiday soon so potentially I could do something and keep the kids off the grass. Alternatively wait until autumn.
It’s a north facing garden. Gets water logged for most of the year which is why I assume it’s mainly weed. My DP mows the grass every two weeks but the lawn mower won’t go low enough to actually get a lot of the clover flowers. I would mow more regularly however I can’t start the bloody thing as it’s petrol!! I would potentially buy a separate mower I could use if it’s the only solution.
Thank you
