Natural Weed Killer
Thank you, Sally South 🌿🌺🌿
I thought I had responded. I'm so sorry.
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.

There are other weed killers besides the ones that contain glyphosate like Roundup. Use any of those.
Hi Sally, in a gallon of white vinegar, mix 1 up of table salt and then just a sqirt of Dawn which makes the mixture stay on the weeds a bit longer. Works every time and is quite inexpensive. Just be sure not to overspray onto plants you want to thrive!
