We are entering in to the hot and dry part of the summer for many of us which is not the best time to be clipping our clovers. When possible get them clipped (primarily for weeds) in June and then again in late August or early September unless you are blessed with plenty of rainfall through out the summer.
I ordered clethodim from Rural King the other day and it was at my house in 2 days! Shipping was $19 and even at that, it's still the least expensive source I have found thus far.

Clethodim is of course a grass selective herbicide for those not familiar with it and Butyrac 200 is a broadleaf herbicide safe for use in clovers (not chicory)
Both clethodim (known as Select, Arrow, Shadow among others) and Butyrac 200 (2-4DB) are usually available at your local co-op but here is an online source for Butyrac as well.
Butyrac 200 source
Use 8 ounces of clethodim per acre and 1 quart of crop oil for grass control and 1-3 quarts per acre of Butyrac 200. Mixing the two can reduce the effectiveness of the clethodim so where possible spray them separately.
