Young children are filled with glee at the sight of the beautiful, bright yellow flowers that dandelions produce in early spring. Their heads then dry out, and parachute-like seeds form that look like fluffy seed heads.
To try this method, use a watering can to dampen the soil surrounding the dandelion, then wait a few minutes for the moisture to sink in. Moist soil makes it easier to pull any plant from the ground.
Using boiling water is another incredibly easy way to get rid of dandelions. Water and an electric or stovetop kettle are all you need with this method.
You can burn your dandelions too! The technical term for this method is ‘flaming.’ What you are really doing is essentially using a weed torch to kill your dandelions.
