This is a sponsored post by AMDRO. See full disclosure statement below.

So it’s that time of year when we’re trying to get the backyard in order so we can spend more time having family barbecues, enjoying a margarita on the back patio, and playing games in the yard.

back patioMy back patio is a little bare these days and in desperate need of some TLC. First item on my list? Get all of the weeds out of our flower beds.

AMDRO PowerFlexThis year I turned to AMDRO PowerFlex Pest & Weed System products. They have 4 different products to choose from:

  • Weed & Grass Killer Concentrate
  • Lawn Weed Killer Concentrate
  • Yard & Perimeter Outdoor Insect Killer Concentrate
  • Home Pest Indoor Killer Concentrate

Of course the first treatment I opted for was the Weed and Grass Killer.

AMDRO PowerFlex Pest & Weed SystemThe all-in-one system simplifies indoor and outdoor pest and weed control by helping consumers eliminate unwanted pests in three easy steps: 1. Fill the reusable one gallon tank with clean water. 2. Twist in one of four patent-pending cartridges. 3. Spray to treat target pests; quickly switch between projects by removing the cartridge, flushing the applicator for ten seconds with water from the tank and twisting in a new cartridge. AMDRO PowerFlex Pest & Weed System productsIf you’re worried about killing your nearby bushes and grass, just make sure you spray close to the root of the areas you want to eliminate. So, what do I love most about the AMDRO product line? The battery powered sprayer. All four cartridges fit inside the nifty sprayer so you can eliminate a wide range of pests – from ants and cockroaches to dandelion and many other hard-to-control weeds. AMDRO PowerFlex productsAMDRO PowerFlex products range from $11.99 to $14.99 and are available at The Home Depot, Walmart and select regional retailers.

So, how would you like to win a $50 AMERICAN EXPRESS GIFT CARD from AMDRO PowerFlex Pest & Weed System products?

    I use a weed barrier and mulch to keep the weeds away.

    We used weed barrier but it didn’t work

    Well, live in an apartment that does weed maintenance. And coffee grounds and vinegar for the bugs that might come inside. 🙂

    I’ve never heard of AMDRO before and I’m excited to give them a try. We have a very large yard with lots of landscaping so a quick and easy weed killer would be wonderful.

    We use the Amdro for ants. And I am VERY careful with the products we use because we have children, one with special needs. I am always very satisfied with it.

    My weed control tip is to get the kids involved in pulling weeds. They think it’s fun and you get a whole lot more done quicker!

    My tip for weed control is to pull or hoe them before they go to seed

    This I have not tried. I would like to. Where is it available, I might have missed that in the article. Thank you.

    you can cover ground with newspapers before you plant and use mulch to create a barrier against weeds.

    I have learned that removing all sources of standing water drastically improves the mosquito population in our yard. Would love to try the AMDRO outdoor insect killer on the yard to see if I can improve the mosquito population even further! Those little buggers just love me, but I don’t love them. 🙂

    My best tip is to keep on top of the maintenance. When we first purchased our home it have been vacant for a long time so the weeds were out of control. Its still an ongoing issue but by keeping an eye on it and doing yard work weekly its improving.

    To deter pests, plant marigolds! Also I use sevin dust especially for ants! I also spread newspaper under mulch or straw to fend off weeds!

    We have used weed barrier and done raised gardens that helped with weeds a lot. We have a brand new huge yard, so $50 would be super handy!
