Andy’s post received almost 50 comments from gardening enthusiasts.

The most common response was to use a mixture of white vinegar, salt and washing up liquid.

Elaine Conroy said: “If you mix salt, washing up liquid and white vinegar nothing will ever grow again where you put it, it kills the soil. Great weedkiller.”
