Area denial weapons are used to prevent an adversary from occupying or traversing an area of land. The most common are land mines of various types.

The massive use of defoliants such as Agent Orange can be considered as an interdiction measure because, at their highest concentration use, they leave areas empty of any form of vegetation cover. In the desert-like terrain that ensues, it is impossible for an adversary to travel without being seen, and there is nothing much left for taking cover in case of an attack.

Other area denial methods include the fallout from nuclear weapons as well as chemical agents that are by design non-degrading, such as the nerve agent VX.
