Is there some chemical made to stop this?

Is there some reason why you cannot get down on yer knees and pull the
weeds?

Pulling them disturbs the dirt that's there, which just makes it
easier for more weeds to grow. Also, many times with pulling, you
just break off the top of the weed, the rest stays and continues to
grow.



IMO, there are waaaaay too many ppl shortcutting to toxic chemicals to
solve their problems in an easy fashion. Kills me that ppl berate
big-ag for using too many chemicals, then uses the same toxins at
home.

BTW, I have the same problem. Plus, I'm an ancient geezer who
deplores weeding.

Apparently you don't deplore it as much as you do using a chemical
that's safe, widely used and very effective if used properly.
I just used glyphosate on my patio, beds, etc.
