How do you get rid of weeds on Animal Crossing other than pulling them up and digging them up

That depends on the version of Animal Crossing. In Animal Crossing: Wild World, the only way to get rid of them is to pull them up, dig them up, or restart your town. In Animal Crossing for the GameCube there was a ghost names Wisp that would sometimes appear late at night, and if you managed to find ?5? spirits around town within one hour, he would offer to remove all your weeds.
