There are also some products on the market referred to as “natural” weed killers. Corn gluten is one ingredient which you’ll find used in some selective, pre-emergent weed killers. Corn naturally secretes a chemical that kills other nearby plants. That chemical is found in significant concentrations in corn gluten. However, it is generally not effective against common lawn grasses which is what makes it a great option for pre-emergent weed control in lawns.

Some gardeners prefer to use weed killers which are a much more efficient way to rid your garden of common weeds as well as the more invasive ones. If you fall into this category, then this is the guide for you.

Each weed killer falls into a category and will help you to identify how they work. Some (systemic) weed killers are absorbed into the plant and travel down into the roots, effectively killing the weed from the inside. Fertilising your garden will keep it healthy and increase the strength of your plants and flowers. This will make it much harder for invasive weeds to take hold as there’ll be a dense root system preventing them from germinating properly. Spray at a time when weeds are actively growing and have adequate leaf area to absorb the spray. Treat established perennial weeds at the start of flowering to give best results. The main difference between Roundup Fast Action and Resolva 24H is that this weed killer takes a little longer to work at around 48 hours instead of 24.

And selective weed killers can be applied in larger quantities (lawns) as they’re only effective on broadleaf weeds and are much safer for your garden.

Providing you have a little patience, there’s not a significant difference in the price or performance of these two products. We found that the design of the Roundup Pump N Go pressure sprayer feels better to use due to its coiled pipe mechanism. This makes it the easiest to use of all the weed killers we tested. The type of weed killer you need is down to the type of garden you have. We’ve tested the best from each category, so simply choose based on your preferences and requirements. All plants need light to survive and produce food, a process known as photosynthesis. Some weed killers work by limiting the plants ability to photosynthesise. If a plant can’t produce food and energy, it essentially starves to death. Preventing Protein Production Other (residual) weed killers are applied to the soil which then prevent species of weeds from germinating and ever appearing.
