Where there is a lawn, there will always be weeds. If you don’t want the the weeds to choke out the lawn, you pull the weeds and use appropriate weed killer. But there will always be weeds.
Simple choice, get overrun with weeds or do lawn maintenance. There are no other options.
But I worry much less about the weeds in some guy’s lawn across town. I’d rather weed my own yard, maybe help the guy next door with a few.
But I don’t go weeding all over town.
