Thanks

You can buy weed killer from the garden centre, this is on the bend as you come into Oria, it has green gates.  They only speak spanish, if you do not just translate before you go.  The weed killer is the door on the left as you approach the building.

I think you want the weed killer asap and a garden centre is the place you can go. But, watch out for the weed killer in Aldi (usually on offer about twice a year). The stuff is excellent (is a concentrate) and when applied kills everything and is fast acting - great stuff. But, store it securely where children cannot get hold of it.

Sarah, Can I just remind you, that when you use weed killer, you not only kill the weeds but everything around it, including insects, bees, wildlife, dogs that might sniff it become ill. Please think twice before pouring poison into the ground

Hi 

We would only use it very sparingly where weed roots are going into our concrete. We have dogs so would be very careful 


Thanks

This is the weed killer you can get at the garden centre in oria.  Do not put down when rain is due, sun is best and not windy.  Do not let your dogs near the area until it is dry and make sure they do not eat the sprayed weeds.
