Six Good Reasons White Clover Is Not a Weed
1.It's low growing and needs little mowing.
2.It's evergreen even in the coldest climates.
3.It's drought tolerant, requiring little if any supplemental water once established.
4.It's a fertilizer factory for grass and other plants since clover has the ability to store atmospheric nitrogen in its root systems.
6.It resists insects and diseases, especially the white grubs that can be a major lawn nemesis.

Good luck.
I agree, I can handle the clover but Creeping Charlie is another matter. I broke down and sprayed last fall because it was taking over my flower beds but normally I don't use chemicals.
Yes, I put down rye grass to help with ground erosion in the winter. The rye grass contained dichondra, something looks like creeping Charlie, but worse. Well it helps with erosion, but it easily gets into flower beds. I regret the rye grass, although the attendant asked if I wanted cheap rye grass or perennial rye grass and yes cheap because cheap it will die in summer.
