Many gardeners are looking for a way to minimize the amount of weeds growing in and around their gardens without using any harsh chemicals that can be toxic to the environment. There is fortunately a natural weed killer that you can make with ingredients that are most likely already present in your home. All you need is one gallon of vinegar, one and a half cups of Epsom salt, and two tablespoons of liquid dish soap.

Key Takeaways:

  • The recipe first calls for approximately one gallon of vinegar, either white or apple cider.
  • You are also going to want to use one and a half cups of Epsom salt, which can be purchased at local drug stores.
  • The last ingredient on this list is two tablespoons of dishwashing liquid, regardless of brand.

They are much safer than regular garden weeds killers and are non-toxic. Also, they don’t have any dangerous side effects like the other organic weed killers on the market today.
