Q: Will weeds grow back if pulled out?

• <div><p>Weeds may grow back when pulled out if the root is not completely removed. Invasive weeds can regrow from just a small portion of remaining root, so using a weed-pulling tool can help ensure you remove the entire root. Weeds may grow back faster if roots aren&rsquo;t fully removed, and incomplete removal could cause them to spread as well. </p></div>
