DIY Organic & Natural Homemade Weed Killer

Do you get uncomfortable going through the chemical-filled garden section at your local home improvement store like I do? Every time I start looking for something to solve my garden weed problems, I get nauseous just being near all of those noxious products. That’s why I turned to a more natural solution for all of my pesky weed issues.

If you search the internet, you’ll find a few organic and natural homemade suggestions to get rid of weeds. I had tried two of the most popular suggestions: spraying a vinegar solution on the plants, and dousing them with boiling water. Neither one gave me the greatest results, so one day I decided to combine the two methods into one. Trust me that this is a surefire organic and natural homemade weed killer that will get rid of your pesky weeds in no time.

Supplies:

  • Distilled white vinegar
  • Dish soap
  • Boiling water
  • Spray bottle

Instructions:

Step 1: Pour your vinegar into a plastic spray bottle. Add 5–6 drops of dish soap in the spray bottle and shake to combine.

Step 2: Boil tap water and place it in an easily pourable container.
