Clover is one of the most common lawn weeds in Auckland.

It spreads quickly in thin, nutrient-poor lawns.


Why Clover Appears


Clover thrives when:


  • Nitrogen levels are low

  • Lawn density is weak

  • Mowing height is too low

  • Soil conditions are poor


How to Remove Clover Properly


✔ Apply selective broadleaf herbicide

✔ Improve fertiliser program

✔ Maintain correct mowing height

✔ Overseed thin areas


Simply mowing clover will not remove it.


Preventing Clover Long Term

Thick lawns suppress clover naturally.


Proper lawn care includes:


  • Structured fertilising

  • Seasonal adjustments

  • Density improvement


For full prevention strategies, read our Lawn Care Auckland Guide.
