Burien Remove weeds from gravel areas
Homeowner’s Issue
Gravel areas in Burien commonly collect weeds, moss, and debris thanks to our mild, wet winters and shady microclimates near Seahurst Park and low-lying Highline spots. Compacted, thin gravel over disturbed soil makes it easy for annuals and creeping perennials to take hold. On slopes and driveways, weeds worsen drainage and create trip hazards; in rental properties they hurt curb appeal and increase turn-over work for landlords. Homeowners and landlords often want long-lasting, low-to-no-chemical solutions that respect local waterways and storm drains. Typical owner goals are safer walkways, neat visual lines at the curb, and less frequent touch-ups — ideally using sustainable methods like hand-pulling, organic controls, improved drainage, and physical barriers such as landscape fabric and extra gravel. Addressing root systems and restoring proper gravel depth prevents quick regrowth and keeps maintenance predictable through Burien’s rainy season.
