Here's a hack to kill those stubborn weeds...without using chemicals

If you have a garden, you know that weeds can be a never-ending battle. It almost feels like as soon as you pull one out of the ground, another immediately appears in its place.

For parents and pet owners killing weeds with store-bought or pre-made chemicals can often cause concern and worry. Try this natural homemade weed killer that will put your mind at ease and kill the weeds without causing harm to your family. You need salt, vinegar and dish soap. 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.
