I have some weeds growing out of the brickwork at the bottom of the house, various varieties.

I want to use the strongest possible, yet cat and environment friendly, product to kill them dead.

What should I buy?

I’d try and get as much out as possible close to the root and then get the weed killer as deep in as possible. Less risk to animals and more effective

If using roundup (ie glyphosate), it needs to be sprayed onto the leaves while the plant is active / growing.

If you chop the leaves off, and spray onto stem / roots, it doesn't work so well.

I don't think the overall health and environmental risks are fully established.
