There are two ways to killing weeds. One of them is by using a chemical-based weed preventer. The other is going natural. Chemical-based weed killers have negative effects to you and to your surroundings.
When used, the chemicals are spread by air. Once you, your family and your pets inhale them, they get into your respiratory system, causing damage. The chemicals can also damage your other organs, since the chemicals get into your blood.
You can use a mask while spraying un-natural chemicals, but you have to understand that these chemicals are strong. They go deep into your roots, trunk, and stems of flowers, trees, and bushes that even their produce is contaminated.
The organic method of killing weeds does not have the same harmful effect. They do not contain toxic chemicals that interfere with your health, with the environment, and your fruits and vegetables.
Organic means natural and non-toxic. Natural ways include pulling off the weeds with your bare hands. Another way is to use grass clippings, hays, leaves, comfrey, and shredded bark as mulch.
