Hi all,

I have two issues.

First, out gravel driveway is overrun with weeds and grass. I use to spray Roundup on the small patches, which took 3weeks(ish) before they were brown/dead, and they would stay dead (though still visible) for a period of time, then would start growing back after some wet weather. I had planned on tackling it more frequently as it grew back, but this time, it's really gotten away from me, and now since having rain not too long ago, looks close to being a lawn.

Aside from getting a mini-dozer and and inch out, then putting fresh gravel in, can anyone recommend on what to do in this situation? Spray with grass/weed killer, then maybe burn their corpse ?


Secondly, we have a small shed in the backyard. I rarely go behind there, but did the other day, and noticed a lot of some vine-like weed along the ground, and climbing the back fence. Stepping on the weed sounds sort of rubbery, like walking on lino with shoes. Anyone know what it is and how to kill it? Weed spray again? Or perhaps better to get the whipper-snipper in there (or mow), then rake it out, then poison the area ?

I should note, we have some cats, and the neighbor has a dog, so if there's a poison you might recommend, preferably pet friendly. :)


Thanks in advance,
