Effective on Chickweeds and Clovers
I have used this ready to use product on Chickweed and Clover, and it works well. I use it with a non-ionic surfactant to make sure that it sticks to the weeds' leafy area. It is not intended for crabgrass, and is ineffective with hearty crabgrass, but it does work well on dandelions. I am going to keep my empty ready-to-use 1 gallon container and try the concentrated mix next time as a refill. Try to use this when you know it's not going to rain for a couple days to increase its effectiveness.Also seems to work well on any broadleaf weed, like dandelion and others. It will kill dandelions with one spray treatment and it won't come back. Clovers will brown within 3 days, and fade thereafter.Apply when the weather will be good for plant (weed) growth over the following couple of days because the chemical is absorbed through the leafs during plant growth - so try to avoid very, very hot or too cold of temperatures following application. Apply when winds are calm so you don't breath it too much and so that the product doesn't drift onto desirable ornamental plants that it could damage.When you follow the instructions on the bottle, don't get overly concerned about how much water you mix it with. The most important thing is how much product you apply per square feet of lawn. Water is only the vehicle, as the experts say. The amount of water is not important, it is only there to help you spread it evenly and to help apply the product the correct amount per area of lawn. The analogy that I like to use is that when you take medicine, you are not concerned about how many ounces of water you took a pill with, you are only concerned about how much medicine is in the pill. It is inconsequential how much water you drink it with as long as the correct number of mg are used. So to apply this product, measure your lawn area, then make sure you apply the correct volume of product spread evenly over that area of lawn without worring too much about how much water you mix it with.This product is probably very similar to Ortho's Weed B Gone (by Scott's), but this Bonide product is clear in color and nearly odorless. In my opinion, the Weed B Gone seemed a little bit more "chemically" in its dark brown color and strong odor.The active ingredients here for this Bonide Chickweed, Clover & Oxalis Killer are:Triclopyr 1.12% + MCPA 11.2% + Dicamba 1.12% (These values are from manufacturer's website)Whereas for Weed B Gone it is:Triclopyr 1.56% + MCPA 13.72% + Dicamba 1.35% (so very similar active ingredients). (These values are from Amazon description)The ready-to-use gallon size container doesn't have to be dilluted with water, and is really for spot treatment. The real value for larger areas will be the 1-pint concentrate, which is applied at 3.2 oz per 1000 sq ft of lawn; so the 1-pint size covers 5,000 sq ft (16oz / 3.2oz / 1000sqft). The pint size costs something like $12 with shipping; so it is about $2.4 to cover each 1000 sq ft. Ortho's Weed B Gone pint size concentrate, by contrast, covers 3,200 sq ft (according to Amazon product page) for about $17; or about $5.30 to cover each 1000 sq ft. - about twice the price of this product.You can apply larger areas with a pump style tank sprayer or hose-end sprayer (I have about 1-acre).Overall; I'd say it's a very good product that's comparable to Weed B Gone but a much better value.

good stuuf
It worked well & got rid of almost all my problem clover. The only issue which keeps me from giving 5 stars is that it took two passes to do the job.

Doesn't do anything
Maybe I got a container of water. Tried adding more than recommended to my one gallon sprayer and still no results. Trying to get rid of clover. Treated multiple times and still nothing. I don't get it. Added a surfactant. Still nothing.

Kills Clover Overnight
The good news is that it killed the clover overnight that was growing around the edges of my deck. The not so good news is that when received from Amazon, the bottle was leaking inside the packaging due to the bottle cap being loose. Additionally, the mixing instructions could have been clearer/ easier to follow.

Works great on clover and chickweed.
Tried a few broadweed killers and while they killed most weeds, they weren't working at all on chickweed or clover. While Tenacity works wonders on crabgrass, it doesn't do anything to clover.A few applications of this product mixed with a surfactant took care of all of my clover and chickweed. A day or 2 after the first application, both started turning brown. About 2 weeks later, I applied again just to kill any stragglers and new growth.Quality product. Great value.

Easy to use and mix
Good product, used it to kill some clovers. Didn't hurt the grass and wiped out the clovers. I didnt see andthing within 2 days so i ended up using a second application. Not sure if i rushed it, but it did work.
