DIY Homemade Weed Killer (Also Good For Ants!) With Secret Ingredient
HI Sylvia,
You can use straight vinegar with a few drops of Dawn (to make it stick) If it's in an area where you never want anything to grow, such as between sidewalk cracks, you can add salt to that vinegar mix. The salt pretty much kills the ground for plants so do not use salt if you will want to plant something in the area where you're working. Wishing you the best.
Vinegar is best but make sure it's the heavy-duty cleaning stuff, not the kind you can consume!
