Gardener types: a question about weeds and grasses (details inside).

1 Answer

Answer :

Doesn’t everyone love pavers? You might try using a weed eater and just skim over the surface of the pavers to take out the weed tops while leaving the moss intact. Of course the weeds will attempt to grow back but each time you go over the pavers with the weed eater the weeds will be weaker and weaker until they die. Also a product called “weed & feed” may help along with using a weed eater. FYI: I have about 160 square feet of pavers around our house. I live in Tacoma where moss is king. Every year I presure wash the pavers to clear out the moss in between the pavers. If I don’t do that then within about 3 or 4 years, the moss will completely cover the pavers.
