Using a weed control fabric to suppress your weeds is a great idea to discourage weeds from growing. In this article you can learn about weed fabric as we take you through the uses of the fabric and why you should use it.
Using weed control fabric or landscaping fabric will:
- Discourage weeds from growing – because it stops sunlight from reaching weed seeds and will therefore either reduce or eliminate them entirely
- Environmentally friendly – as using the fabric limits the need for using harsher weed controls such as chemicals
- Conserves moisture – adding this fabric to your beds and borders helps to reduce water evaporation. Consequently less watering is required
- Cost effective – because it lasts for tears. So there is no need to re purchase weed control every season
