Dandelions are actually easy to kill......pour boiling water on them, that's what gardeners here in Aussie do.

I also found the wonderful benefit of letting the yard grow wild... More wildlife! We're in the middle of the city and hardly ever seen anything besides English Sparrows and Starlings. This year we and our neighbors let our grass (and weeds) grow tall and go to seed before mowing it. We got American Goldfinches!!! That was my first time seeing them besides wayyyyyy out in the country at bird feeders.
