how to kill weeds naturally

We have a gravel driveway area we want to kill the weeds, naturally.
I've heard salt works well. are there other things that work?
we don't want to use weed killers.
Thanks in advance.

Hi tammys

Here are some links, that are in the (Useful Garden Links) above your Post.

There is another way of weed control that is just perfect for Gravel drives. I have the links for the Flame weeder, I gave out on a post to do with weeds and fencing.

We use store bought Viniger 5% to kill out the clumps of grass in our gravel drive. Just spray on weed in hot sun & 1 more time may be needed on big grass clumps.

Now that I have the new LPG weed flamer, I think we will use the viniger a lot less now. Flamer is misleading, flame weeding works, by wilting & not burning the weed.

These are the links to both the model I got, & the home page where you can order them, Made in the USA, not the cheap junk ones. We paid $88.00 & the junk one is $54.99, not that much saveings, when you are using LPG Gas. Be safe buy quality.
