Remove crab grass from driveway

[Gordon Gould]

Is there any easy or best way to remove crab grass from a gravel driveway
and turn around area? The stuff is so tough my rear blade wont shave it off.
I have not tried a rake but can borrow one if thats the way to go.
Thanks for the help

Round Up.

I was afraid someone would say that

Of course Round-Up if you want to kill all the vegetation in a gravel drive. MSMA if you only want to kill the crabgrass and dalisgrass.

Roundup (glyphosate), vinegar or torch.

Chlorox....cheap

I'm curious what concentration of clorox do you use and how often?

Full strength. Often? "Fire for effect" I have seen it used on sidewalk cracks with great effect.

I use a box blade. Drop the scarifiers down and it digs up the crab grass. You could use a rake after that if you wanted to clean up the clumps of grass.
I have pets running around all the time and I do not use chemicals any more than I have to.

Boiling water does the trick for awhile........... Depends on how much energy you want to use.

A blow torch on a propane tank ....
