Paving stones remain one of the most popular materials for hardening surfaces. Their undeniable advantages are their aesthetic appearance and resistance to harsh weather conditions.
Weeds and moss growing in the gaps are a troublesome problem for many garden owners. Undesirable plants mar driveways and walkways, and removing them mechanically is time-consuming and tiring. Additionally, it only provides a temporary solution.
The most challenging opponent is moss, which initially appears in the gaps between the stones and, over time, spreads, growing on the surface itself. This plant can cause significant damage to the surface.
How to quickly get rid of weeds from paving stones?
Due to its porous structure, paving stones quickly absorb moisture, contributing to the material's rapid destruction. The plants and moss growing in the gaps push the rocks, causing cracks and unevenness. That's why it's so important to remove weeds from them regularly.
So, how can you quickly and effectively get rid of the problem? Just prepare a spray with vinegar, Epsom salt, and dish soap. Not only will you save money this way, but you will also take care of nature by not using invasive chemical preparations.
Add 1 quart of distilled vinegar, 4 tablespoons of Epsom salt, and 1 teaspoon of dish soap, then mix thoroughly. Pour this mixture into a spray bottle.
Spray the paving stones in places where moss and weeds have appeared. Repeat the treatment for several days. Remember to use it on days when it is not raining. Otherwise, all your work will be in vain.
