I live in the northern MO-southern IA area. Every October on a nice calm day, I spray my lawn with Trimec. Try to buy it at a farm chemical supplier and not the watered-down version at Wal-Mart. I put 2 ounces in each gallon of water and use a 14 gallon Fimec sprayer that I pull behind my garden tractor. Be sure to leave some distance between the sprayer and any flowers and shrubs. For these areas, you might want to use a hand held sprayer. Early morning with a dew works great. I always do it when the grass is in need of mowing. This way your sprayer will leave tracks and you will be able to get nice even coverage. I never have dandelions or clover the following spring. When you first start doing this, you may have some bare spots in the spring, but get out early with a garden rake and put some new seed in and you will have a beautiful lawn. Be sure to keep pets and kids off for at least a day after spraying. Good luck.
