Weed Control in the Garden ? A Surprising Alternative to Using a Weed Killer

If you have an unplanted part of the garden and wish to keep it clean of weeds, consider controlling them by mowing, as opposed to eliminating them with a weed killer. It may pay handsomely in the future.

Different weed control methods are needed for varying situations. Annual weeds growing in a small flowerbed for example, can simply be pulled up. While sometimes, prevention is better than cure, as in the case of spreading organic mulch on the soil to prevent the germination of weed seeds.

Why A Garden Mulch Is Better Than A Pre-Emergent Weed Killer For Preventing Winter Weeds
