    Hi Stella, salt water will help to kill them, but I suggest you add salt to white vinegar. It will speed up the process. I use a mix of 1 gallon white vinegar, 1/2-1 cup table salt and a squirt of Dawn dish washing liquid. Mix well and then place the mixture into a spray or squirt bottle and apply to those pesky weeds. Within a few hours they will begin to wither and die and can be easily swept or raked away in a day or so.

    This is not an exact science – approximate measures are totally fine 1 gallon white vinegar and cup Epsom salts and ¼ cup liquid dish soap Combine ingredients in spray bottle and treat weeds at the hottest time of day for best results.
