Weeds are simply plants in the wrong place, with most spreading easily via wind.There are many ways to prevent weeds from growing, which is easier than banishing them, but if you do have weeds on your patio, an expert has recommended boiling water.Gardening expert at Fantastic Services, Gena Lorainne, explained: "Boiling water is a very aggressive and quite effective method to get rid of weeds from hard-to-reach places."This is simply because the hot water can destroy practically every plant, no matter how tough and meaty its leaves are. "This is why this solution is never used regularly on plants because it would kill them in an instant too," reports the Express. "Using boiling water to kill weeds is easy, you just need to boil some water and pour it on the patio while aiming for the cracks where the weeds live."According to the expert, the weeds will die in a "few minutes" and they shouldn't come back for a while.Britons will only need to account for the cost of boiling the water or if using leftovers from boiling vegetables or pasta, this is a great "free" hack.White vinegar, which contains lots of acids, can also be used to banish weeds, particularly paving slab ones.In fact, white vinegar should only be used on hard surface weeds, according to the expert.This is because it will "instantly destroy" them so make sure to only use it on patios or paving weeds, similar to boiling water.Gena shared: "The best possible proportion here is one part vinegar and two parts water.
