Vinegar Weed Killer

Diseases & Pests, Lawn and Garden, Organic Gardening, Video by Danny Lipford

Weeds popping up through paving stones or cracks in sidewalks can be a huge annoyance. Here’s a solution to stop them without back breaking work or toxic pesticides. Fill a spray bottle with household vinegar and spray it liberally on the offending weeds. The acidity of the vinegar with a little help from the sun will quickly burn the weeds up. Stubborn weeds may require a second application and English ivy may resist the treatment all together, but most weeds will be gone in a few hours.

    Tried it earlier this summer–didn’t faze my weeds. I’m afraid I’m back to 2,4-D and Glyphosate.
