Nice improvement. Now go buy some roundup and spray those cracks in your driveway. Getting rid of the weeds growing up from your cement will make almost as much of an improvement looks wise and cost you $5. ---

If anyone ever needs landscape work let me or bamfer9deuce know, were professionals. Mastering in the new installs and the art of flagstone, unilock and paver brick/stone work. Seariously though, we have been landscaping for 5+ each and have been doing sidejobs. 🙂 ---

> [@SilverGT](#): > > I will never use it agian waste of $15! > > it works on dirt very well but not inbetween the crack of driveways I have had very good success with that Ant poison. There is one that will not kill grass and then there is the granules that will eat it up. Just put it in the cracks and add a little water. It takes like 6 months to grow back. Plus, it kills Ants :tup: You can always over-fertilize it too. Burns the piss out of it.
