In a border, or where you don't want weeds or grass to grow: cut them back with scissors, weed whacker, or mower depending on amount and douse with white vinegar! They will be dead within 2 days, especially if the sun hits them. I use this in my dog pen to rid it of weeds and it isn't harmful to them or youngsters.

I pull weeds soon after I water the area, or just as soon as I can after a rain....you don't pull out so much dirt as well as the other plants near them....

When gardening, to remove big dandelion plants, use flat head screwdriver to dig down to break roots deep in dirt to ensure no re-growth.
