The Gallup Home & Garden Weed Control has been promoted as the strongest weed killer available for domestic use, and it did work very well. I noticed visible results within 24 hours, and the roots were killed within a couple of weeks. It’s been designed for both annual and deep-rooted perennial weeds. Clover: very important to pollinators, it helps condition your lawn by improving nitrogen levels in the soil. One downside of this weed killer is that it makes the soil unusable for a period of time. This is fairly disappointing if you’re wanting to get planting. The instructions state that it takes a ‘growing season’ to wear off, meaning potentially an entire spring or summer!
It works well, successfully killing off tough perennial weeds like dandelions, and clearing larger weeded areas too, although the claims of ‘24-hour effectiveness’ are somewhat optimistic.
How we tested
However, the results are reliably positive, albeit slow – it takes around one week for clover to start visibly yellowing and dying. There may still be the occasional dandelion that needs to be removed by hand after using Weedol Weed Killer, but it does a fairly comprehensive job of clearing the lawn (without harming the lawn itself).
Of course, if your garden is overgrown and looking untidy, a weed killer may be necessary. However, in many cases, hand-puling may well be the best method for getting rid of weeds, and there are some plants that are often classed as weeds, but they're actually hugely beneficial to pollinators and can look quite nice as part of a natural-looking lawn. So, if they don't bother you too much, consider keeping them to help bees. There might be certain 'weeds' you don't want to eradicate. The weed killer needs to be diluted. Then, the diluted product can be sprayed or applied directly to the stem of the weeds. This makes it possible to avoid getting weed killer on other plants.Whilst Neudorff might not be a particularly well-known company, their WeedFree Plus Concentrate is a powerful weed killer that works on relatively stubborn weeds. It seems to work best in hot, dry weather, and certainly shouldn’t be applied when rain is forecast for the same day; the longer the weed killer stays on the weeds, the more effective it will be. The nozzle can be twisted to select either a ‘jet’ or a mist; however, the mist is not particularly fine. The jet, on the other hand, can be used as expected to sufficiently target individual weeds.
It does contain glyphosate, which is toxic to ponds and pollinators. It’s broken down into the soil so isn’t bad for the environment in that sense, but you do need to be careful to keep children and pets off the affected area until it’s dried. It’s also one of the best products in terms of value for money, coming in a liquid concentrate that can be diluted to cover up to 667 m². Pelargonic acid is the most commonly found active ingredient in organic weed killers. It’s a naturally occurring acid in geraniums. This acid is generally considered effective at controlling the growth of smaller broadleaf weeds (under 15 cm tall).Well, prevention is the best cure and there are several tactics you can use to keep weeds away. You might prefer some methods over others, or consider using a combination:
