Brick patio: weeds out of control

Jul 13, 2007 4 Replies

I have a 1,200 sq ft brick patio. The weeds are rampant. I have to spray the entire patio with Roundup every 2 weeks.



Is there anything I can sweep into the cracks to keep new weeds from germinating?


Got a propane torch? You don't have to burn them to a crisp, only wilt them. They'll die.

Interesting. Just water it in?

If you want to do that. Not needed though. Any moisture will leach some salt and carry it to the roots of the plant. Very few plants will grow in a high salt (sodium) environment. Dave
