Comments (5)Boiling water kills weeds in my driveway, but it's more difficult in the grass as you don't want to kill the grass, too. You'll probably have to hand dig to remove the weeds, but it's easier after a soaking rain. This time of year might be difficult. A weed hound grips the weed firmly to remove the deep taproot, but the side of your palm gets sore even with gloves. One spring years ago I paid my 8 year old son per dandelion to finish up the last 100 or so left in the lawn. He eagerly prowled the grass after school & earned a good amount of $ because there were many hundreds still there. After you remove the weeds you'll need to spread grass seed, but it's easier in September after the rains come again. The weeds come back if you don't fill the space with something else. We've reduced the size of our lawns and created smooth curves for easy mowing, so is isn't hard to keep up. In fact our teen son mows the front in 7 minutes. I know because he timed himself to prove it's not too much lawn because he wanted us to keep enough turf for lawn games like croquet & bocce ball. On hot days it's nice to lay a blanket on the cool grass in the shade whereas it's not comfy to lay a blanket on wood chip or rocky paths or pavers. Plus the plentiful clippings in spring are useful in gardens as mulch once dried. Here is a link that might be useful: weed hound...See MoreOrganic broadleaf weed control.... The day has arrived
Comments (11)So..... I sprayed the weeds with the directed mixture and within 2 days, the foliage has turned black and the weeds appear to be dying. I tried spraying weeds ranging from little seedlings, to a cluster of Canada Thistle. Zappo! The biggest downside is the cost. $140 for the tub. Makes 25 gallons. Definitely a spot spray or broadcast in a small area....See MoreBroadleaf winter annual weed identification
