    Who has a gravel driveway/road that they maintain?

    I also have this issue. Gravel drive and paths with weeds popping up. Wife sprays with Spectracide and it works killing the weeds. But then the dead weeds are just laying there all ugly. I remember seeing some sort of drag behind tool that would actually pick up the gravel and redeposit it...

    How can I tell if this GFCI outlet bad?
