How can I make DIY weed killer?

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.

Hi Sarah, Mix 1 gallon of white vinegar, 1/2-1 cup of table salt, and a squirt of Dawn dish washing soap together and use in a spray bottle or garden sprayer. Spray the mixture onto weeds liberally (the dish soap helps the other two ingredients adhere to the weeds) . Within a few hours the weeds should begin to wither and die. Just don't use the mixture on any plants you want to continue to thrive. You can use a piece of cardboard to keep the spray from getting onto other plants.

This works every time! Best if you treat the weeds early when they're just beginning to come up.
