Lisa Ralphs said: “I make a mix of white vinegar, salt and washing up liquid in a sprayer. Vinegar smells, but goes after 30 minutes. Kills weeds every time, cheap and easy. Used this for years (after spending so much on Weedol).”
Jack Sutcliffe, gardening expert at Power Sheds also recommended using this method to kill paving weeds. He said: “Get rid of unwanted weeds and any leftover crops to give it a cleaner look. A cheaper hack to help with this and save costs, is by making your own weed killer with a mixture of white vinegar, salt, and washing up liquid.”
This DIY homemade vinegar weed killer recipe kills any garden weeds or plants and may turn soil slightly acidic for a bit, which is why it is best to use it only for paving weeds. For best results apply on a dry day when the sun is shining, before midday.
How it works
White vinegar
The active ingredient in vinegar is acetic acid. Household vinegar has an acetic acid concentration of about five percent. Acetic acid is a desiccant, meaning that when sprayed on the surface of a plant, it draws moisture out of the leaves, killing the top growth.
