A must have for landscaping.

Best weed preventer on the market. I put it in my flower beds once a year and I have very few weeds throughout the year. I highly suggest using it. It will save a ton of work long term.

Seems to be working

Too early to make a definitive evaluation but seems to be working as long as you spread their granules evenly
