Dandelion seeds get into the soil through wind and take roots quickly The plant has long tap roots that can spread throughout the bed.
Even when the top part of the dandelion dies off, the root continues to live and the flower sprouts in the spring again.
The most effective way to get rid of the pesky plant without using chemicals is to rip it out by hand. This can be done with a garden fork or a small shovel. You have to dig a little around the root and then rip out the dandelion. The main thing is to remove the entire root system because the flower can grow again.
