What is the best weed killer for hillsides?

3 years ago

I have a hillside that is approx. 25'x 80' that is impossible to use a lawn mower on and weed whacking is extremely difficult. The grade/pitch of the slope is fairly close to 10/12. The soil is sandy and is around 90% weeds 10% grass. I'm not interested in planting any grass and or flowers throughout this area.

Any broadleaved weed herbicide for lawns should work. But it will only be a temporary fix. Killing off the weeds will leave bare patches that will only be populated again with more weeds.

Thank you for the help..... This is at a cabin and since the yard is all sandy soil it's blotchy anyway, therefore it doesn't matter in appearance. I'm basically looking for a way for me to eliminate weed whacking this area which take me a couple hours on the slope mentioned. Appearance would be nice but, eliminating the hard work trumps it. Thanks again. Ray 👍

Are the weeds predominately broadleaf weeds?

Yes......but there are others as well. I haven't actually tried to identify them individually.
