So gestresst, dass er sich sogar entscheidet, was zu tun ist, ist der Boden rechts vollständig mit Brombeeren und Holzbüschen. Kann ich einfach das Los töten?

It looks lovely! What are you feeling overwhelmed with?
Brambles are a bugger, I cut them right back and then dig them out. You can use weedkiller but it’s not great for your soil or the wee bugs, beasties and small animals around.
Looks like you’ve got kids. Do you really want to be spraying weed killer around where they’ll be playing? Just cut them back – won’t be half as hard as you’re imagining. Other than that, it seems relatively tidy at a glance? Maybe just take a hedge trimmer to the bushes to tidy them up
Get a Mattock and destroy the root crown. Find someone on taskrabbit if you CBA. This is absolutely fine.

This better shows the mess
What an opportunity
Use a fork and get them up by the root. Weed killer will only kill the foliage of brambles unless its some seriously strong poison. You need the roots up. If its in a border put some week control down after so its less maintenance. It looks tidy so its not too much work involved just do a bit at a time. Gardens are always work in progress
A thick layer of woodchip would keep the weeds down for a bit once you’ve got out the brambles and dug it over.
What do you envision doing with the space? If it were me I would dig out the brambles and plant something there that should spread and give some ground over to keep weeds down, though it’ll take a few years. And some shrubs, maybe foxgloves or something too. I wouldn’t be worried about some bluebells though, I like them
As well as the good points other people have made, I’m not sure weedkiller works that well on brambles anyway, as even if it kills the new sprouting growth you’re still going to have the same patch of woody thorns to dig out.
Don’t use weed killers. So bad for your garden. Are they blackberries ? If yes just prune. If not cut right back. When I garden I compartment it. So it doesn’t look like such a huge job. Take a small patch and just see it as that. Avoid weed killers and pesticides. You will never have a good garden if you use them.
Don’t be stressed – looks a lovely garden and a great canvas. What might be annoying to you might be well liked by the wildlife at least
It looks perfectly fine to me 🤷
You can paint weedkiller onto brambles but theyll still come up eventually, its work unfortunately. Eventually you can just keep mowing it
the best thing for your garden is to pressure wash the tiles
Gardening is fun. Dont get stressed over it. Its yours.
