Does Nature’s Avenger Organic kill the roots?
It depends on the depth of root system. Nature’s Avenger Organic works by dissolving the weed’s leaf cuticle which in turn dries the plant and kills it. If the weed has a shallow root system such as annual weeds, killing the tops can kill the roots. If the weed (for example, a perennial weed like a dandelion) has a deep tap root removing the top growth will not immediately kill the root. Additional applications may be necessary. Since all the plant’s energy comes from the sun, eventually the root will die. In any case, whenever possible spray weeds when they are small.
