HOW TO KILL WEEDS ON DRIVEWAYS AND SIDEWALKS
Weeds may seem small and insignificant, but they can do serious damage to your driveway and sidewalks! It’s important to remove these weeds quickly so that you can avoid major home maintenance expenses down the road. Keep reading below for our tried and true weed removal techniques.
Here are some easy methods to remove weeds from concrete.
Pull them by hand! I know it doesn’t sound fun, but if you can catch them early, you can save yourself a lot of trouble later. Many people don't think to call a handyman to help pull weeds, but this is a job I love to help with to get our local community's yards, driveways, and sidewalks looking their best!
Spray them with a chemical weed killer such as Roundup. This is an easy and highly effective method used by many people. But more and more studies are coming out about the dangers of exposure to glyphosate, the main chemical in Roundup, so be sure you use protective gear while applying it, and avoid the area after spraying.
Use a DIY weed killer. A popular recipe is 1 gallon white vinegar, 1 cup salt, and 1 Tablespoon dish soap mixed together. This is a great natural treatment, but it may need more applications to be as effective as a chemical spray.
