- 1 litre white vinegar (5% acidity)
- 1 cup table salt
- 1 tablespoon liquid dish soap
Step 1 – Dissolve the Salt
Pour the vinegar into a bucket or large jug.
Add the salt and stir until completely dissolved.
Step 2 – Add the Soap
Stir in the dish soap gently.
Avoid creating too many bubbles.
Step 3 – Transfer to a Spray Bottle
Pour the mixture into a clean garden sprayer or spray bottle.
Label it clearly and keep it out of reach of children and pets.
Step 4 – Choose the Right Day
Apply on a warm, dry, sunny day.
Avoid spraying if rain is expected within 24 hours.
Step 5 – Spray the Weeds
Spray directly onto the weed leaves until they are well coated.
Avoid spraying nearby flowers, vegetables, or lawn grass, as the mixture can damage any plant it touches.
Step 6 – Monitor the Results
Small annual weeds may begin to wilt within 24–48 hours.
Larger or deep-rooted weeds often require repeated treatments or manual removal.
