There are two methods I've heard of. The first is taking boiling water and pouring it over any weeds. I've never tried this, but it's supposed to work well. The other is vinegar. Put regular old white vinegar in a spray bottle and saturate the weed you want dead with it. This works well on small weeds, but if they're very big you may have to spray it repeatedly. I've heard adding lemon juice to the vinegar also helps it kill more weeds, but I've never tried that either. There are also a lot of preventative steps you can take before planting an area, but most of this stuff has to be done before you plant.

Yes, there is if the population of a prticular weed exceeds the resources that the land could provide, competition between them will eventually kill most of the population.

Also, there are crops that exhibit allelopathy, like Carica papaya, it produces compounds that kill plants/weeds where it grows. (although not very noticeable)

What kind of weed? Good luck, if it's crab grass. If it's anything less prolific than crab grass, try using burlap sacks spread over end to end, or black plastic, but you have to do it before the grass produces seeds...then you'll have it all over again.
