Hi Debbie, I try to catch the sidewalk salt on sale at the end of winter at my local hardware store. I use that on any stumps, weeds etc. that I want to keep at bay throughout the summer. It helps a ton!
U yse 1 cup of table salt in 1 gallon of vinegar with a squirt of Dawn dishwashing soap. Mix it and place in a spray bottle or garden sprayer. Spray the weeds you want to kill. DO NOT spray on any plants you want to thrive. This method works within a day or so, depending on how hot the weather is. It's also great for using on grass that comes up between pavers, etc. that you don't want.
Vinegar has worked short term for me.
Bleach water has been more effective.
Both need a couple of drops of liquid soap as a surfactant.

Thank you very much.
