According to this, you just need to shrivel them, not actually burn them up.

I wish, I would have had my bride do that. :-))

We use a weed barrier fabric beneath rock in the desert and still have
superficial weeds pop up in the rocks. A torch has been good when I
needed or used one. They are not routine for me, as I don't own one.
