So there, a safe, fast, and easy weedkiller that you can use at home! Another benefit, it’s very economical! Here’s another easy homemade glass cleaner recipe. But, it’s so fast and easy I don’t mind doing a couple of applications at all. It’s important to apply it on a sunny day after the dew has evaporated and you may need more than one application for larger, more established weeds. I need to sweep/hose the area off to get rid of the dead vegetation and another application would clean things up completely, but you get the idea. A lot easier and faster than pulling them out manually! Here’s the same firepit after allowing the weed-be-gone to work for a day. The weeds tend to grow in the cracks between the pavers and are a pain to remove manually. Here is a photograph of the patio area around our firepit. Another easy application of weed-be-gone and it should look great. Much better! Not every weed is completely gone but I’d let some of these weeks get pretty large. These are the same rocks along the driveway after applying the weed-be-gone in the morning of a sunny day and then going back in the evening to see the results. But it certainly doesn’t look very attractive with all the weeds! This area tends to get lots of weeds that are difficult to remove. The photograph below is of an area of river rocks that are along our driveway. It works much better than trying to get the Epsom salt to break down in the sprayer. Once the Epsom salt is cooled proceed with mixing solution as the recipe states. Several readers found that heating the Epsom salt with some vinegar on the stove until dissolved will prevent the problem of the sprayer clogging. Don’t use it on your lawn, ornamentals, etc. Warning: This mixture will kill whatever greenery you spray it on, so only use it on weeds that you want to eliminate. The mixture can be sprayed on pesky weeds in the morning and by evening they should be gone. Weed-Be-Gone is a combination of three common household products that are considered safe and that can quickly be mixed to produce a weedkiller. So, although chemical weedkillers tend to work well, I just avoid using them (everyone’s now learning about the issues with Roundup right?). In addition, we use organic products for raising our chickens, goats, honey bees, and garden produce. We avoid using any chemical weed killers or herbicides on our property because we’re concerned about the health issues they may contribute to. Use Weed-Be-Gone, a safe & easy homemade weedkiller!
