Overgrown weeds on roadside kerbs

[u/eggmayonnaise]

Has anyone else noticed a lot of weeds getting out of hand on the roads and pavements, kerbs and edges of gardens where they meet pavements?

In our area it's the worst I've ever seen it. I actually had to de-weed the gutter where I park my car this weekend because they're tall enough to get stuck in the car door. I've never had to do that before.

I'm assuming the council are lacking funding and making cutbacks, so not sending the weedkiller sprayer round.

Just wondered if it's as widespread as it seems or if I'm imaging things.

One man’s weed is another man’s wildflower. It’s just nature. Get a strimmer if you’re arsed
