Bekah-
What's with these husbands & roundup!!?? Mine did the same thing b/4 I could find the 10% vinegar. I used regular vinegar which didn't do the job. I would think that several good rains would take care of the gravel area but that doesn't help the groundwater for miles around!

| One of the sad things is I had just bought 20% vinegar. I don't think we are getting rain in the Dallas area very soon. |

| Go to H-E-B and rush to the kitty litter department. They carry a Hill Country Fare brand kitty litter (blue bag) called Traditional. It is 100% Zeolite, a naturally occurring volcanic clay material. It is highly absorbant. I would mix plenty of it in the stones and then water like crazy. The Zeolite should soak up anything it can find. |

| What do you do with the zeolite after that? Unfotunately HEB does not have a market here in the Dallas area, I'll look for it in a different brand. |

| Central Market is an HEB store, although I have not noticed any pet supplies in there. You may want to call them and see what they have. You may also want to try Whole Foods. |

| A lot of feed stores carry it for deodorizing animal stalls. The last one I bought was called Sweet PDF. |
