Re: natural weed control

**A*@aol.com**

I use boiling water on weeds between the bricks on a small patio.  It  
works just great for shallow-rooted weeds and grass but only  temporarily 
damages those with taproots, such as dandelion.  Those still  have to be dug out 
with whatever implement (I use a knife) will squeeze in  between the bricks.

What  natural weed control methods do you recommend in place of RoundUp?   
Please share thoughts and experiences, including possible recipes such as 
for  a vinegar spray.   I used boiling water to kill weeds in the cracks  of 
my driveway.  What do others do?  

Many  thanks,
