Herbicide A: Selective, systemic herbicide

Well done, you controlled the creeping Charlie, but did not damage the grass. The product you used was a selective pesticide that controls creeping Charlie, but not grass. Also, to control creeping Charlie you must control all the plant. Any segment left behind and it will take off again.

A systemic herbicide can move through the creeping Charlie and be more effective than a contact herbicide.
