I am looking for a natural way to get rid of weeds and bushes that just keep growing everywhere and that I don't want.

There is a particular weed which came from my neighbors yard that is growing in leaps and bound in my yard. I cut it down and it reapears a few feet away with more gusto.

    Gardening strength vinegar is up tp 4x stronger than kitchen vinegar and will kill weeds, use diluted to strength required, it has many uses other than killing weeds. Beware, it will also kill your grass and plants you do want, so use carefully and in the appropriate strength.

    Try pouring straight household vinegar on them. Or you can purchase "Roundup".

    Hi COO, Soak the weeds with the hose. Next day pull the weeds as close to the ground as you can. Do it slowly, and you'll get all the roots. Bushes, you might need a landscaper.

    Thanks. I will try it.

    Does Vinegar help too?
