KILLING WEEDS WITHOUT PESTICIDES

* Be sure to get out the weed's whole root system or it may grow back.
* Never let a weed flower = it will soon produce seeds and
* you'll have so many more weeds to get rid of.
* The best time to pull weeds is after a light rain.
* If the ground is very dry when you have time to weed,
* moisten it to loosen their roots' grip on the soil.

*Boiling Water

Bring water to a roiling boil. Pour about 1/4 cup directly on the weed.

*Vinegar Solution

In a quart-size bottle, mix 1 quart of white vinegar with a tablespoon of salt and a couple squirts of liquid dish soap.
Be sure the salt is totally dissolved. Pour into spray bottle and squirt directly on weeds.

*Citrus or Clove Oil Solution

In a quart-size bottle, add 2 tablespoons of oil to 1 quart of water and a couple squirts of liquid dish soap.
Shake well and pour into spray bottle. Squirt directly on weed.

*Cornmeal

In a lawn spreader or by hand, sprinkle a thin layer (less than a quarter-inch) on top of the soil where you want to stop weeds from sprouting.

*Newspaper or Carpets

Spread layer of 6 to 8 sheets of newspaper on areas where you want to eliminate weeds.
Moisten lightly to help it stay in place and then top with bark chip mulch.
Set a single layer of carpeting wherever you want to keep weeds from coming up.

*Unique Weeding Tools
