Every gardener knows the frustration of those weeds that just keep coming back. Here are a few ways that will help to get rid of them without using harsh chemeicals.
- Salt – Mix three parts salt with one part water and pour it on your weeds. Be careful not to pour it any other plants, though.
- Newspaper – Cover the weeds with old newspaper while leaving your plants exposed. Water the area well, then cover with a few inches of mulch.
- Vinegar – Fill an old spray bottle with normal household vinegar. Squirt it on weeds.
- Fire – Wet the surrounding soil and then use a weed burner.
- Mulch – Spread 3 inches of bark mulch over your beds, blocking sunlight from reaching any weeds.
- Bleach – Just pour it straight on the weeds, but be careful of surrounding plants.
- Walnut sawdust – This contains juglone, which is toxic to plants. Just sprinkle it on areas you want to rid of weeds.

SURREY, BC – The Fraser Valley market showed early signs of a spring thaw in February, with sales increasing over January, but continuing to trail typical levels for this time of year. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board recorded 843 sales on its Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in February, a 36 per cent increase from January, but 38 per cent below the ten-year seasonal average. New listings declined nine per cent in February to 2,796, suggesting some sellers are choosing to wait amid competitive inventory levels, and may be positioning their homes for the peak of the spring market.
