What alternatives are there to using Roundup for weed killing? I've got tons of weeds I can't seem to keep up with both on my walk and in my landscaping.
Salt. I used salt the other day to get rid of ants near my patio, and a side effect was it killed all the weeds on the edges of the patio.
Mulch works only after you've gotten the weeds under control imo

I agree that the weeds will only make their way though the mulch.
I didn't know that salt alone worked, though. I'd read something about salt, white vinegar and dish washing liquid.
Jan how do you apply the salt? Mixed with water in a spray bottle?
carolyn is right-i started using vinegar and it works...
if you have pesky ones in a small area,,,boiling water will kill it
