Use a 1:1 mixture of white vinegar and water poured into a spray bottle. Or for immediate results, pour boiling water on the weeds.
I make my own. Dissolve 1 cup of salt ( plain or Epsom salts) in 2 cups of hot water, Add a good squirt of Dawn dish soap, add to 1/2 gal jug of vinegar ( white or cider either is fine), fill with water. I usually save a 1 gal. Vinegar jug, then buy a second jug. I pour half in each jug and make up my mixture. I get two jugs to work from. When the first is empty, I buy another juju of vinegar and make more! It works fast on a sunny day, just reapply when needed. Nontoxic to anyone but weeds! I keep it ready in a small plastic sprayer just for weeds!
2 cups white vinegar
¼ cup salt
Squirt of dawn
Mix in a spray bottle. If you have a larger area, you can mix in a garden sprayer with larger quantities. Use when it will not be raining for a few hours so that it isn’t washed away.
I use one cup of vinegar, one cup of salt to two gallons water in a garden sprayer. Saturate the weeds till dripping. Do not use on lawn or in garden. Will kill everything. Boiling water on weeds in lawn and garden.
