Have used both. What happens is that what they touch burns the weed or grass they come in contact with. Something that does a better job is get a spray bottle and put some clorex in it with a little water. Pretty effective and burns everything it touches and it will die

My grandmother used the boiling water method and it works. The vinegar would work as well, but kills everything else around it. Here is a link regarding the boiling water method: http://faq.gardenweb.com/faq/lists/weeds/2002105058024260.html

Never heard of that. Is there particular weeds this is supposed to control?

I have never heard of using vinegar or boiling water either... I usually go with RoundUp or something else like that. =)
