where are the weeds?
Never ever gonna happen. Unless you concrete over the entire space. Weeds are a part of nature and will always be a constant concern. Wind, birds, animals, people all spread weeds. What weeds do you have? I boil 2 kettles of water every morning and go out and dribble on weeds, then dig out when dead. Another option is vinegar. Epsom salt and boiling water work well too. In flower and vegetable beds, smother with newspaper, cardboard, landscape fabric, then mulch.
Permanent is kind of an dream for most gardeners. However, many people believe in using boiling water.

Yes, I do know my question was kind of ridiculous, but... hope springs eternal!
Weed cloth spread over a prepared and bordered patch of ground that has been treated with weed killer.... then covered with 2 to 4" of mulch will stay weed-free as long as the weed-cloth stays intact. Plants can be planted through holes in the cloth ... or set on top of mulch in attractive pots.
snakes will live under weed cloth-suggest that you sink pots of mint in places-both snakes and mice hate it,so ,you'll be removing two potential issues-do not plant mint-it will spread everywhere-plant the entire pot in order to contain its spread-any kind of mint will work
