Bloody weeds... everywhere!
I have looked around the interweb...
Best DIY solutions for spray-applied stuff that will knock-em for 6 is what
I'm after.

Some suggest brown vinegar (hot)
Others say Jays-fluid (if sprayed should it be diluted and to what ratio?)
Steam Cleaners (don't have one and would be a great expense for beating up a
few weeds)

Dandelions are the worst..
(helped by a 6 year old that likes to tell the time by Dandelion clock)

All ideas welcome.

Someone mentioned flame throwers. IME they're not very effective,
and a little reading shows that they need to be much higher power
than the usual DIY/gardener ones to be properly effective.

Strange that no-one's mentioned salt yet, works like chlorate but
non-toxic.

Cement is another trick, rake it into the soil surface, press it down
and plants cant grow, the soil surface is too hard.
