Prostrate Spurge: Identification and Control in Lawns

Prostrate spurge (Euphorbia supina/E. maculata) forms low mats in late summer. It's a summer annual, so control focuses on pre-emergence or spot treatment.

Pre-emergent herbicides (apply late spring, repeat in 4–6 weeks): pendimethalin, dithiopyr, isoxaben.

Post-emergent spot spray: Broadleaf weed killers like Weed B Gon or Bayer Season Long Weed Control.

Hand pulling: Easy because roots are shallow. Remove before seed set.
