I'm dealing with a pesky weed problem in my yard and need some advice on effective weed killers. I've got these weeds popping up between my stepping stones, and it's been such a hassle to remove them. I've tried using a weed whacker, but I keep breaking the wires since it hits the stones a lot. Plus, it doesn't really get to the roots.
I'm hesitant to use chemical weed killers since I have a dog who loves munching on these weeds. So, I'm looking for safe and effective methods to get rid of them. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance!

You might want to try using vinegar! Just spray it directly on the weeds, and you'll see them start to wither away within a few hours. It's pretty effective and safe around pets. Just remember to reapply after a week for the best results. Plus, the smell goes away once it dries!
I’ve had great luck making my own weed killer. Just mix vinegar, salt, and a bit of dish soap. It works like a charm on the weeds! Just be careful not to spray anything you don’t want to kill, as it’s pretty potent. Plus, it’s definitely pet-friendly compared to harsher chemicals!
If you’re up for it, using a propane torch is a quick way to get rid of those weeds. Just fire it up and blast them off! But be careful around anything else you don’t want to ignite.
Thanks for the tip! I’ll definitely give that a try. I appreciate keeping it safe for my dog.
