If you want to get rid of pavement weeds and you don't mind killing the invertebrates in the soil, as this salt will have done, use boiling water which at least will cool and not stay there permanently. Or pull them up. Or learn to identify them - there are some great resources on learning to identify and appreciate pavement weeds here https://morethanweeds.co.uk/ Invertebrates are struggling enough as the plants they depend on wither in this heatwave, can we not just leave them whatever scraps remain just this once? Honestly as these relentless, climate collapse induced heatwaves kill people, kill wildlife and set fire to the landscapes I love I'm feeling increasing despair at how indifferent most people seem to be to their environmental impact. But I feel particularly depressed to see things like this that probably stemmed from a deeply misinformed attempt to help.
