A great natural weed blocker, leaves. They are natural and don't cost you anything. Just rake them up and place them where you need them.

I think one of the best weed blockers is pine straw. It's inexpensive and readily available. It does not attract termites and is safe to use around your home.

Weeds can be blocked naturally with salt. Plants do not like high concentrations of salt and will not grow where the ground is salted. This is good for an area such as around a septic system's junction box. However, this will not work if you wish to grow things in the same place.

Mulching is a great way to naturally block weeds. You can use almost anything to mulch from grass clippings and straw to hardwood mulch purchased from a garden center.
