It seems that my years old strawberry patch is declining from, probably, virus problems. So I plan to spray with weed killer and replant. How long should I wait before replanting?

Can you plant them somewhere else for a while?

Current recommendations seem to be for at least two or three years' rotation inbetween strawberry plantings.

here's an example:

Some people are recommending brassicas in the rotations for disease control: an example of this:
