There are 2 that I recommend that are either free or close to it: first, pour boiling water directly on the weeds to kill them instantly. Next, spray a mixture of half water, half white vinegar on the base of the weeds. They should die in a day or two. If you have a large area, use a large sprayer that holds 1+ gallon.
Mari, just squirt all the places with vinegar with 1/4 as much salt mixed in with the vinegar. If some grass comes back, squirt again. You should only have to do this about once a month or less in warm weather. But grass and weed seeds are blown around all the time, so spray when you see signs of life. ☺️
I use vinegar and salt for weeds in a sidewalk or driveway, but don't use the salt if you have other weeds in a garden. The salt "kills" the dirt so that nothing will grow and can also kill many plants that you may want. Wishing you the best.

This is the most effective weed killer that we've used. And it was featued on Hometalk. Good luck! Hugs, Holly
