Kill Weeds Without Harmful Chemicals (Now With Video!)

Mixing three everyday household products is an effective way to rid your gardens of unsightly weeds.

If you're wondering how these simple household products work, the acid in salt and vinegar dries out the weeds. The dish soap helps the mixture to soak into the growing weeds rather than remaining on the leafy surface.

Start by measuring and mixing 1 gallon of white vinegar with 1 cup of salt and 1 tablespoon of dish soap. Mix this directly into a pump-style garden sprayer, a handle-held spray bottle, or a gallon of vinegar.

This formula will work best when applied to weeds when the ground is dry, and you have a full day with no rain in the forecast if you can apply the mixture while the sun is still up. Spraying while the sun is still up.

Once you have located the unwanted weeds (are any weeds wanted?), use the pump sprayer or a traditional spray bottle to get as close to the unwanted weed as possible and saturate the entire area.

Make sure you take caution to avoid spraying any flowers. This mixture could also cause the leaves or flowers to die.

If you spray on a sunny day, you will notice the leaves start to turn brown within a few hours.

After 1-2 days, this is what a weed soaked in the vinegar, and salt mix will look like.

I love when household cleaning agents have multiple uses. I love to clean my diamond rings and earrings with Dawn dish soap. If it's gentle enough for animals, it's okay for your precious stones.
