Hi,

Does anyone have any advice on removing weeds from a small paved area
at the front of my house which isn't near any gardens or plants?

any help would be greatly appreciated.

many thanks



Spraying them with vinegar often does it. A repeat application may be
necessary. Just be careful not to let the spray drift onto anything
nearby you want to keep.

Boiling water also works. Just take the tea kettle out there. Again,
it may have to be repeated.
