How to kill yellow archangel #755000

Asked June 09, 2021, 10:25 AM EDT

Yellow archangel has taken over my yard. I have been advised to cover the area with plastic, leave it on for 3 months and then plant and add mulch. Will this work? I will still have yellow archangel growing in other parts of my yard. Will it just come back and take over? Do you have any other suggestions? Thank you for any help you can give me.

You can trying digging deeply to remove all pieces of roots but herbicides work well.  There are several suggestions in this site: yellow-archangel-brochure_web.pdf (wa.gov)

I cannot convert the Washington State publication.  Please go to their site and put Yellow Archangel in the search box: Washington State Noxious Weed Control Board
