it’s that time of year: unwelcome invader garlic mustard is back and getting ready to spread itself as much as it can.
good news: it is quite easy to pull up!
what do I need? light work gloves or gardening gloves.
what do I do? grasp the plant as close to the ground as possible and pull gently (sometimes a slow back&forth helps). this plant pulls easily any time, even more so after a rain — but don’t wait, do it now.
how do I dispose of it? in with the regular trash is fine.
why should I do this? if this plant goes to seed then your problems multiply in the coming year!
