    2 cups white vinegar

    ÂĽ 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.

    Dawn dish soap and salt. I have tried it without the Dawn and it works too. Also if you want to save even more money, just use boiling water. If you poor boiling water on the weed it will die right away.
