Cleaning the yard during the rainy season

It is easy to clean the yard of the grass and weeds during summer. Once cleaned the weeds would grow surely but slowly. However, during summer the weeds grow too fast like every week the yard needs to be cleaned.

I have inquired about herbicides but it is not recommended. They said the herbicide that kills the weeds is used in commercial quantity only like in the field or farm. For a small garden the best to use is the hands.
