(Cross-post alert!)
Here's specific info on getting rid of Creeping Charlie (expanding on what I
wrote earlier--will cross-post):
Creeping Charlie...or Glechoma...the variegated one is great in
containers but I wouldn't let it out. To kill the plain green one in a lawn
or flowers use Borax mixed with water and spray on the lawn. About 1/4-1/2
cup per gallon of warm water. Repeat weekly until it dies. It works by
raising the boron level in the soil which is harmless to other plants but
will kill the creeping Charlie.
