Why Use

Weedkillers only work on the weeds you can see and it’s labour-intensive. The regular use of Resolva Weed Preventer forms a physical barrier that stops weeds emerging.

In addition to this, Resolve Weed Preventer is effective on more than 20 types of weed including Dandelion, Clover, Annual Meadow Grass and Black Nightshade.
