    WEED KILLER FOR AREAS TO BE REPLANTED. If you have weeds in areas you want to replant, do this: Fill an ordinary garden sprayer with white vinegar and add about one teaspoon dishwashing liquid. Apply sprayer top and follow the instructions on the sprayer to get it ready to spray. That’s it. Seriously, it is that simple. Pick a hot, dry day to spray weeds until saturated, and they will wilt and shrivel up within hours so be careful to not spray anything you want to live. However, do not worry about the vinegar killing anything below the soil. Because vinegar will not harm the soil, you can safely replant the area once the weeds have died. ***** WEED KILLER FOR AREAS NEVER TO GROW AGAIN. To kill all vegetation in walkways, driveways and other areas where you don’t want any living thing to grow again, mix two cups ordinary table salt with one gallon of white vinegar. Do this in a container that is larger than one gallon capacity so you have room for the salt. Apply the lid and shake to dissolve the salt. Salt dissolves more quickly in vinegar than in water, but it takes a bit of doing. It may not completely dissolve, but that’s okay. Add 1 teaspoon of liquid dishwashing soap. Pour into an ordinary garden sprayer. Apply to weeds or grass on a dry, sunny day to areas you don’t want to see vegetation of any kind in the future. The presence of salt in this recipe is what will eventually bring permanence to your weed killing. The salt will penetrate and leach into the soil. It may take several applications, but in time the presence of salt will “sterilize” the soil in this area so that nothing will grow there. Plan well before you go this permanent route. ***** The purpose of the soap is to break the surface tension of the vinegar so it sticks to the weeds, forcing them to absorb it more readily.

    Curious ... never heard of a 'mono block'. What is that ?

    Pull, pull, pull! Hot water too. And to help get in the cracks try an old knife or spoon.

    Well that is a broad question. You can pull them out, use a weed killer spray (natural or chemical), cut them down, put newspaper or plastic over them, weed fabric over them, pour super hot water on them, read a book on weed killing, go to your local greenhouse for advice. All of this depends on the location and type of weeds. Will there be pets or children in the area being killed off? Is there a veggie garden or flower garden going in the place where the weeds are at. Are out sure they are weeds? Without more specifics this site a hard question to answer.

    I have never have gotten very good results with any version of vinegar, dish soap, salt combos. Boiling water kills to the root, Eventually new weeds will come.
