I will definitely try the sugar. We have some really tenacious creeping crud that just takes over if not weeded constantly.
I wanted to share one more thing about my use of sugar. I was concerned that this would be attractive to ants...and thus result in an *unintended consequence.* That has not been the case at all. My favorite time to use this sugar is right before a good rain. Sometimes I will do it as it’s raining...if we have no severe storms.
