I always take Resolve home frm the UK. It does even the toughest of weeds in 24hrs. Terrific stuff.
Just needs a tiny spray and Bob's your uncle.
Don't drink it.;)

Hi Kenny,
Yes weeds can be a bother but if you mix white wine vinegar with water and a squirt of washing up liquid and spray it on works wonders.
Hope that helps.
Regards Altos.

Both vinegar and salt are well-used weed killers of old, but do beware as, in particular, salt will contaminate your soild and if you try and grow anything there, it will not work. Remember your history ... victors used to salt the fields to prevent crops growing.

So don´t use too much water as it will make the salt seep into the soil.

An alternative is boiling water. You will see fairly instant results and no soil contamination.

My husband clears the weeds from a community vacant plot using a spray with Roundup weed killer, this has proved to be very effective.
