The battlefield I live on

Article Abstract:

Seven techniques for combating bothersome garden weeds are presented. One method is to use organic herbicides like corn gluten meal, which is good for preventing germination of many weeds; another method is to cover the weeds with heat-trapping clear plastic, which causes the sun to burn the weeds.
