I have had some success with a propane torch. Also allowing moss to grow between the pavers seems to preclude the growth of weeds.

If you're in area that has winter ice, sidewalk salt works wonders at killing plants. I've found out the hard way.

Assuming you don't consider moss a weed...

cheap vinegar; get it in gallon bottles. Use it at the beginning of a sunny day. The weeds will eventually come back, but not for a month or so. zemedelec
