Weeds and grass keep growing in a gravel fire pit, requiring constant manual removal despite the homeowner's efforts to find a long-term solution.

Existing solutions either only provide temporary relief (3-6 months) or require frequent manual labor, with no permanent, easy-to-apply solution for gravel areas.
