Use Vinegar to Kill Weeds in Sidewalk Cracks

Thanks for giving us such a good tip on killing unwanted weeds & etc.
Salt will do the same,just sprinkle it on grass,weeds & anything you don't want.

Good tip! I'll be using vinegar this summer for sure.

I have also sprayed 1/2 strength vinegar on "stinky squid" a mushroom type growth that smells horrible. It has worked well.

As someone mentioned previously, salt also works, but use it ONLY on areas where you don't want anything else to grow; it will spot up your lawn for a long time, so use with caution. Much better than toxic chemicals, though! Thanks for the tip.

Here's what I do...during winter months, every time I go to the store, I buy the small pourable Mortons salt containers (about .50 cents each), then when spring comes I have TONS of them saved up. Then what I do is, I pour 1 whole container into a gallon of hot water, let dissolve, then dump it on weeds and driveway cracks. I also put it around my mailbox ( I don't have a weedeater) and around small stumps and places hard to mow around.
