My neighbor used vinegar & salt to kill all his weeds, but I read on this site there was some other additives people added with good results-- please share if you know of anything else to add to the mixture.
Thank you,

Do not use this if there is grass or plants near. White vinegar and water 50/50 a dab of dish soap and a dab of salt.
I use vinegar for a lot of things, and I hve used it to kill weeds which it does. I have not used salt w/ it, so not sure of a formula.

I only use straight vinegar as it works just fine.
I would NOT use the salt, just the vinegar. Salt will stay in the ground and spread out.
For a healthy supply of this man-made concoction, mix a gallon of white vinegar, one cup of salt, and one tablespoon of dish soap. Make sure it is properly stirred, then put the mixture in a spray bottle for easy use. You can stash the bottle in your house for repeated use.
