How do you get rid of the weed called "creeping charlie"?


Question:we just moved into a new house just a couple days ago, and the people who lived there before never took care of the yard for the full year it was for sale, so there's weeds all over and only been mowed once so far this summer. the whole yard has creeping charlie, and I'e been finding out it's really hard to get rid of. we have lot's of work to do, any suggestions?

Answers:
roundup worked for us. If its over a huge area, it also comes in a large size with a hose attatchment for spraying.
