What is the square footage of the yard?

stinking weeds!
I decided to spray the weeds in the back yard today, which really means if the spray works, the yard will all be dead. I think there may be some grass, but I'm not all that sure.

I picked up a bottle of weed killer. It should work, it says it will, and I am not going to go through another summer of stickers in the carpet. I intend to kill the little buggers before they enter the house. The bottle says it will kill the weeds and control the crab grass, another very irritating grassy thing.

I got out the water sprayer thing and then looked at the instructions. It says, "put in 16 oz of weed killer into the spray bottle, don't add water, screw on top and turn on water". 16 oz of spray will cover 2500 sq feet. I have no idea how big my yard is. I would have to get my measuring tape out and measure my yard in length and width, do a multiplication type of thing, probably divide something for the patio part. It sounds awfully math-y and I just want to put the stuff into the sprayer, turn on the water and spray the offending things into weed homicide. So that is just what I did. What do I really care about square footage, my thoughts are keep spraying as long as you have weed killer.

I'll know soon if it worked.
