Is this weed barrier tough enough to stop burmuda grass from poking through?

With my experience I would say yes. We have tumble weeds and they have not gotten through.

unfortunately I do thin they would poke through - blackberry vines etc..... My neighbor has some kind of vine that I swear grows a foot a day and although t has not poked through it is pushing on the windscreen. I love the privacy that my screens give me, but I wouldn't count on them to prevent invasive plants.

This unit will take down tall weeds, no problem. I'd bet that the bramble will be cut easily as well. I am very pleased with this weed eater especially it's power.

Yes it can edge well. I use a thicker cordage for the thick weeds in my yard and it works well. Just realize the battery may wear out within five minutes or so.

I haven't used it for that purpose. I have just been spraying weeds on the ground. Sorry I can't answer that for you

I would not, after 18 months i had to replace a tree, pulled rock back with the weed barrier, extremely strong, grass on top would probably grow but would defeat the purpose of the weed barrier

I'm not sure, but I like old dog's answer. I had bad crabgrass and used a couple of blanket applications of Drive XLR8 on my Bermudagrass lawn. It did not do much against other lawn weeds but is working really well on the crabgrass. For other broadleafs (with the exception of crabgrass) Ortho WeedBGon (including the older formula "Max") works better. And I understand the newest formulation of WeedBGon MAX works on crabgrass again, but it's not available locally so I can't say for sure. Good luck.

Both our neighbors and us have been using the Gorilla Pad for 2 years now and have never experienced any weeds penetrating whatsoever. Sometimes 1 or 2 will grow on top of the pad around the edge but that's it. Works great!

I have to disagree with "Jay" and say, in my experience, yes! I bought this specifically to keep deer out and it works. I live in a town that has no culling, so deer are everywhere. I just wrapped this around my plants and I didn't lose anything this year! What might have worked in my favor is that I didn't try to make a fence or anything. I container garden, so I just wrapped the netting around my plants so they were completely covered. The plants I didn't wrap, a few flowers, did get eaten toward the end of the summer.

The deerblock netting is quite lightweight. I used it for a year, then had to replace it, as it was torn in several places, though I am still using some as bird netting over a blueberry patch. The Deer Barrier fencing has been up for 2 years now (on two gardens), and is still in perfect condition.Netting: light weight and less endurance. Easier to install (bends like fabric).Barrier fencing: heavy weight -- should last 5 years with no problems. Harder to install, but quite reasonable to do so if poles are plumb, with a level mark on them. We have a constant deer population, and the gardens are well protected with this.

I garden a lot and YES, a little bit of either copper wire or copper mesh wrapped loosely around the very base of your plants can be very effective against snails and slugs. You don't try to make a barrier with copper; they say it literally acts like an electric fence by giving them a shock when they try to crawl over it. I just know it works to keep the slugs out of my hostas.

I swore by this product when I was trying to get my grass to grow. I never had any problems with weeds. I never noticed any seeds either.

I don't know specifically. However, landscape fabric is used as weed barrier and is available on Amazon and at garden centers everywhere.

We used it behind an ornamental fence to fill in the gaps and have not had an issue in our garden yet. Having said that, any rodent could chew through this if determined.

No, the flame will damage the turf beside the dandelion. This tool is not really good for weed control in healthy turf. But will work great for weeds in gravel, pavement, along fence lines etc.

I have used it mainly in the perennial flower bed--it works well there. I don't know how it works on weeds in the lawn.

It takes a while to take effect. I have battled weeds for years in a gravel drive in a self storage. I always sprayed but this works better for me. I just walk through an apply to weeds and grass. I normally cannot keep up spraying but I have applied this twice.
