. . .
This stone & gravel path drys quickly after a rain but it tends to
have a weed problem.
Nasty little weeds seem to spring up in the
gravel and if left unattended, become big weeds.
Pulling the weeds out can be a tedious job but using poisonous
herbicides is not an ideal solution.
Vinegar to the rescue! Weeds really don't like vinegar and turn brown
and die after being sprayed with it.
It is not reccommended that you spray vinegar on concrete as it could
react with the lime in the concrete.
Unlike poisonous sprays, vinegar readily breaks down into water and
your children or pets could lick it up without damage.
This is the ideal vinegar sprayer since the acid does not react with
plastic.
If you have extra stubborn weeds 7% pickling vinegar might have the
extra power to dispatch them.
