About the only chemical control safe for centipede lawns is Fertilome Centipede Weed and Feed. Applied at the correct dilution, this product will not harm grass but will take care of clover. Be sure to apply according to label directions. Controlling oxalis in flower beds is a little more difficult because any herbicide you use can affect your perennials. You can try a heavy mulch (I cover the bare soil with cardboard to eliminate sunshine, the cover the cardboard with an organic mulch). Good luck with your garden.
