Is sprayer's stream powerful enough to blast out small weeds growing in cracks between paver bricks? Don't want to use chemicals. Thanks.

No, its got a pretty powerful stream but not that strong. You would be looking for something more along the lines of a power washer.

The nozzle is certainly capable of producing the required narrow stream. The effectiveness will depend on your water pressure and the tenacity of the weed's root system. I would add that the trade off you posit is not clear cut: wasting drinking water to clear weeds is not very helpful to the environment either. Our gardener uses a narrow trowel which he has sharpened to fit the gaps in our pavers and this serves the purpose very well.

It's powerful but not that powerful. Try vinegar to kill the weeds then maybe this will get them out after they're dead.

It will probably depend on the water pressure coming out of your spigot, but at least with mine, I would say generally not. It had a good flow, but probably not enough for your use.

Not too sure. If i had to guess it would be yes. The reason why i say this is because what ever i spray it on will be dead within two days. But it doesnt stop other weeds from growing back in same area. This is hands down the best weed killer ive ever used. (Actually will kill anything u spray it on). It works best for me if i spray in the middle of the day when its hot and within hours the weeds are wilted. A couple days dried out and dead.

We just used the cheap plastic hand held weed sprayer that all stores sell. Be be aware this product did not work for us in Georgia on tiger Mosquitos.

A low volume sprayer I can see it being used for, but if you need a stream the kind for spraying mature fruit trees that could be a reach for this unit. For the price it may be worth your while to try. Make sure there is an in line filter. I have been using this pump for irrigation on an airponics system for over a year and they are very reliable. The only issue is if a piece of anything gets stuck in the diaphragm of the pump you will need to take it apart and remove the debris from it then it works just fine upon reassembly.

I have only really used the spray portion on the weeds. Hard to guess how high it would spray. Depends on how direct or wide your spray is I guess.

Yes you can, I bought a Gilmore sprayer that attaches to my garden hose, it works like magic. Simply choose the setting[ 1-10 ] for the amount of herbicide to water and spray, three days later no leaves and the target is dead...............hope this helps.

We used a garden sprayer and walked the yard spraying surface. Do be careful on breezey days and do not gt too close to plants you want to keep. This product does work!

A friend has used this on outdoor dog runs - both concrete and dirt. I imagine it would work well on brick pavers, too.

I only used this product at 1st. I changed to "Transport Mikron" for things closer to me and "Demand" for the cracks I didn't touch. Both must dry before touching them. Transport is more effective. Go to http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com and read about products and other reviews. Transport was actually suggested by an exterminator (it is what they use). You will need to buy a 2 gallon pump sprayer from a farm supply store also

I used "Raindrip 052010P 1/2-Inch-by-100-Foot Poly Hose" to run lines around my garden. It worked great, and i couldn't beat the price of 10 bucks. Pex would probably last alot longer though if I was more certain of the long term lay out.

In order to apply this product that is part of the perimeter such as a drive or porch, I use my 2 1/2 gallon pump-up sprayer. I set the nozzle for the thickest stream of spray and just apply the Termidor/water mix moving slowly until the mixture just runs off.The mixture will continue to absorb into the ground over a period of time.This option is slower but for me, it is effective.Termidor is a good product, but it should be used carefully and outdoors.lI know you will have success with it, if applied as directed.Alfred E.

Yes it will kill all kinds of weeds in lawns & it should not damage the grass if sprayed at 2-3 oz per gallon water... BUT it is NOT labeled for lawns.. I would recommend Trimec Classic or even better product and much cheaper per treated sq ft is Trimec 992.. Please look for listings by seller Keystone Pest Solutions.

Rip is wrong. This formulation is very safe for established lawns. Just read the label carefully. If you use usually 4oz per gallon of water or less you will be ok and will kill the majority of broadleaf lawn weeds. If you just pour glugs of it in your sprayer overmix and don't carefully measure it, it will kill your lawn.

It depends. If it's hot out, 5 parts water to 1 part weedkiller works. If its cooler (less than 80F?) you need to make it stronger, maybe 3 to 1.

This stuff is pretty strong... I would be extra careful around flowers. If you do, I would hose them off with water, so the weed killer rinses away. Just to be safe. Hope this helps!

I noticed weeds on our pavers dying within 3-4 hours. A couple days later they were all dried up and dead. As of right now, we still have no weeds! This stuff works amazing. However, be careful. I sprayed the edges of the pavers where the grass meets and about four inches of grass is now dead. Also, some flowers I planted later and closer to the edge of the beds are having difficulty taking off. I suspect that the weed killer got in the soil there. Still to not have weeds growing in our pavers for the entire growing season, I'm VERY happy. We used to spend lots of time/effort trying to keep up with them and the sidewalk looked horrible.
