Our environment is over burdened with poisonous substances. Instead of adding to these, get rid of your weeds easily and naturally.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • One spray bottle
  • A bottle of highly acidic distilled vinegar
  1. Step 1

    Fill a spray bottle with the most highly acidic vinegar you can purchase. These bottles are available in any gardening department.

  2. Step 2

    On a dry day, spray your weeds well with the solution. Make sure you soak the centre where the new growth appears.

    AVOID getting the spray on your other plants. If these are too near, hold them back as you deal with the weeds.

  3. Step 3

    In about three days your weeds will burn up and no longer be a problem.

Tips & Warnings
  • This is great for any area but especially easy for weeds that appear in cracks and hide their roots out of your grasp.
  • Make sure you do not get the spray on other plants.
