Yes, spraying Roundup yourself is easiest, and pretty cheap. No cancer risk unless you bathe in the stuff. I also have a weed burner that uses a 1 pound propane tank to burn them up once dead, but I have rocks, not mulch or pine straw as my cover.

Question - how do you keep the grass from growing up at the base of your shrubs? It invades from the main lawn, and you can't burn or spray it, too close and intertwined with the shrub.
