I am really struggle how to "permanently" eliminate
this type of weed on my brick patio.
Using the weed killer called ROUNDUP
does not really work --- it only makes some of
the leaves turned yellow, and then the young ones come back in a day or so.

What is interesting is that I actually put some landscape fabric on
before we laid the bricks. It sounds like the grass pokes thru the fabric !

Does anybody in this forum know a better way to solve
the problem?

Thanks in advance

Just noticed this message; goes back a way; you may
have solved your problem.

In case not, I suggest pouring boiling water on the weeds.
They'll turn yellow and die with a few days, and -- in my
experience -- will not come back.

Be carefully handling the H2O.
