I like to spray it without harming my grass - any recommendations of spray type?
thanks in advance

Turfix. Kills weeds without affecting the grass.

Looks like 'dead nettle'. Any lawn spray will kill it without killing the grass. Mow it first and wait till they start to re-grow for best results. You also need to read the instructions on your spray on how to dispose of the clippings after spraying.

Thanks, I should have mentioned my lawn is 8500sq/m - collection of clippings isn't practical.

We mow and collect the grass from around three acres it is practical, it is used for compost and also as mulch, the chooks love a fresh lot, and when we have no need for the above the cattle enjoy a munch on it.

None of those ideas can be used for clippings collected AFTER the lawn has been sprayed.

Looks like a mint (mentha). Penny royal, garden mint and peppermint all from similar herbs.

Can I borrow your lawnmower? P.S Pretty sure cut grass is not good for stock - cant it kill lambs/sheep?

We don't have any sheep and for certain NEVER feed lawn clippings to horses in any shape or form, but for cattle it seems fine, ours had the odd lot over the years with no ill effects
Silver tiger that site is wonderful. I bookmarked it for reference.
