Home=Made Non-Toxic Weed Killer

Image from Scott Astle's Blog
We feed our cows grass clippings from time to time so we can't use weed killer or other chemicals on our lawn.  This year I am going to try this Non-Toxic Weed Killer from Scott Astle.  This would be a great formula for people with kids and pets too.




NON-TOXIC WEED KILLER

1/2 gallon of Apple Cider Vinegar
1/4 c table salt
1/2 tsp Dawn liquid dish soap 

Mix above ingredients in a spray bottle.
Spray weeds thoroughly.

1/2 gallon for around $6.40
Works better than Round Up - kills weeds on 1st application.

The Dawn dish soap strips the weed of its protective oils so the vinegar can work with deadly force. Safe to use a yard used by pets.
