On the group, Debbie Shelton asked: "How can I kill off dandelions without killing my lawn. Thanks."
Debbie’s post received more than 230 comments from gardening enthusiasts, and the most popular solution was to “dig” them out using either a knife, screwdriver or any other cutting tool.
Jean Quinn said: "Removing dandelions in the lawn. Cut the dandelion out with a long knife. The roots are at least four to six inches in depth.
"Make a deep cut downwards on all four sides around it and the dandelion and its long taproot will come out whole and not leave remnants of roots to re-grow."

Clare Durie replied: "I dig the dandelions out with a screwdriver so you can get to the root! I wouldn't use weedkiller as this will kill the bees too when they land on them."
