How do I get weeds to go away?

Section beneath a house overhang, weeds will block dryer, exhaust, vent. Tried many sprays, plus vinegar [temporary results]. Even thought of placing tin sheet, weighted down, on top, to smoother weeds. Area 2' x 2'. Figuring, Springtime, concrete cover will be a terrific solution. Don't know if existing house wires beneath ground. How would you solve? Open to suggestions. THANKS!!

Off worried about wires use concrete stepping stones over plastic.

  Appreciate idea. Heavy plastic too flimsy. Tried that. Deteriorates in time. Mother Nature enjoys the challenge.

If you have an old carpeting piece, put it over the weeds. Alternately you can by plastic weed blocking plastic black sheeting with the same results.

  Thank you. Thought of old bathmats. Not too lucky with heavy, black, plastic. Our winds destroy it.
