Weed problems solved
Hi,
We have three dogs and I was wondering if you could tell me what type of substance would be safe in killing the weeds that are in our yard. I would rather let them grow than harm our girls. Thanks. - Heather
Hi Heather,
It depends how much of your yard has weeds. I always use boiling water - boil up the kettle and pour over them whenever I have a spare moment.
However, that is obviously not practical if you have a quarter acre or more of landscaping etc. I have only an average backyard and all I have to do is about a quarter of it that is paved with bricks.
However, I am sure one of the 'eco' shops will have a safe product. But remember though, that 'organic' and 'natural' are not necessarily safe - there are many plants and naturally occurring substances that are poisonous to animals. - Ed
Hello,
Thanks a lot about the info on the weeds. I never thought of boiling water and that is exactly what I need it for, between the bricks on my walkway! I will be sure to use your advice. Thanks again. - Heather
