About this deal

The Roundup weedkiller is a ready-to-use liquid solution that contains 7.2g/l glyphosate and provides visible results within 48 hours. For now this is the cut and these are the best/strongest weed killers I am aware of in the UK. What we are going to test. PRO TIP from extensive multiple tests: Most weed killers in this article will handle broad leaf and light weeds. Roundup and Weedol could handle nettles and thistles just about. Gallup on the other hand actually managed to kill a shrub in my test that I couldn’t dig out of my French drain!!! Weed killers are products that are used by gardeners and farmers to get rid of, and control the growth and spread of, unwanted plants, better known as weeds.

I washed down my wellies as well as the garden sprayer after being sure to keep the chemicals out of our home! So as you can see, despite being half the price or less of the brand names in terms of how my Glyphosate you get, it’s easily as effective and in my opinion, probably more so, after all, Glyphosate is the main active herbicide. This will eventually end up double the price with a fancy brand attached. Fortunately for now though, we can grab a bargain. When I am looking for the strongest weed killer domestically, I go straight to this product. It’s pretty easy to use – just drop 15ml per 5 litres of water if applying with a watering can – personally I like to use a garden sprayer so the ratio changes to 15ml per litre – as far as I’m concerned, more water and dilution means less MCPA and Fluroxypyr that settles on the leaves. I have to say though, the watering can method is less vapour so probably a bit better in terms of safety: So I measured out the land area equally and spread the weed killer – what I noticed was I had reached the end and had plenty left over – so I gave the area another blast – I walked over a treated area which is the wrong thing to do – naturally I cleaned my wellies straight after!

Destroy weeds without killing plants and wildlife with the top weed killers for every situation

And two months later there was literally nothing left. I have to say I was very impressed by gallup and how well it performed. Pound for pound it was hard to beat: We’ve got three very different products. The easiest is Roundup. This is just a pump and go sprayer – premixed and ready to use. And so dictates how we will use the other weed killers too for a fair test.

One downside is that the pumping could be a problem for someone with restricted mobility. My mother who has rheumatoid arthritis for example couldn’t press it down enough to build up the pressure. I found the pump was a fair bit harder to use than Resolva’s similar 24 hour weedkiller. You can use this weed killer to kill Brambles, Ivy, and other woody shrubs. But, don’t expect it overnight. This is a product for someone with time on their hands. The manufacturer suggests 28 days for weeds to die. I will happily tell you it’s taken longer myself when using this product. I still really like it, don’t get me wrong but be aware you need to be patient – a few weeks in and everything starts to look yellow-ish: Based on price, ability to kill weeds, least staining and residue, safety for kids and pets, ease of application, reliability, and customer support, I make my choice looking for the best overall score. The same rules apply in terms of application – make sure you don’t let any get into water (ponds specifically) and do wear your respiratory equipment, especially if you’re using a garden sprayer. If you’ve got a few broad leafed weeds poking through, and theres the potential on the horizon for a big outbreak, or looks like weeds are gathering pace, I would definitely give this a go. In contrast to the Resolva which is designed to spot obliterate weeds.It’s actually so strong, it has no problem dealing with the nastiest problems like Japanese Knotweed and Ivy. If you have this type of issue then I would recommend using this product ahead of all others. If you have a large patch to clear then in about two weeks this will show tremendous signs of killing off most annual and perennials. Here’s a look at a two week treatment that you can expect from using the product: Avoid spraying on windy days as this will increase the likelihood of ingestion as well as reduce the amount of product that is absorbed on the leaf. If you spot bad weather on the horizon, stop what you’re doing and wait for dry weather. Protect wildlife
