Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Mix one gallon of white vinegar with one cup of table salt and a few drops of dish soap in a large container.

  2. Spray this mixture directly onto the weeds on a sunny day for best results.

  3. Alternatively, fill a spray bottle with vinegar and spray directly onto weeds, avoiding desirable plants. Reapply as needed until weeds wither.

  4. Boil a kettle of water and carefully pour it directly onto weeds growing in cracks or unwanted areas.

  5. Sprinkle corn gluten meal in early spring before weeds grow. Lightly water the area to activate the corn gluten.

  6. For an aromatic weed killer, mix a few drops of clove, cinnamon, or tea tree essential oil with water in a spray bottle. Shake well and spray directly onto weeds.

  7. Maintain a healthy lawn by mowing at the correct height, watering deeply but infrequently, aerating the soil, and overseeding bare patches to prevent weed growth.
