I have lots of weeds in my lawn that are fast growing. What can I use to spray on them. The two products I used so far are doing nothing.

Thank you for your question and pictures for Extension. I can see by the pictures that you do have weeds in your lawn, possibly creeping Charlie. We do not recommend a specific product for weed control, but here is more information about identifying weeds and how to control them:

In your pictures, it looks like your lawn might need aerating or dethatching. Now is a good time to do that, and here is more information about this:
