What is this weed?

Hi all, Does anybody know what this weed is? It's infested a load of my neighbours lawns and they are looking for an appropriate treatment.

Lesser Trefoil, yes a type of clover, often sold as shamrock.

Clovers can be difficult to treat but repeated spraying of a lawn weedkiller should control it...

It reseeds each year so it won't be a simple task!

Can they live with it? It's a good wildlife plant and 'creates' nitrogen to feed the grass!
