There is the alternative that you never hear of now which is to mix
the concentrate with parafin. Penetrates a lot better.



Would that work on ground elder and ivy? If so I'll give it a try and if
it doesn't work presumably you can set light to them




The recommended ratio of paraffin to mix would hardly be enough to create
an inflammable liquid.
Perhaps the later idea of a squirt or two of Fairy( or sim. ) to the mix,
would aid penetration similarly.
