Weeds compete with grass and plants for nutrients, making your garden look unkempt. Instead of using harmful chemicals, try these eco-friendly weed control methods.
1. Boiling Water Treatment
Pour boiling water directly onto weeds to kill them instantly.
Best for driveways, sidewalks, and gravel areas.
2. Vinegar Spray
Mix white vinegar with a few drops of dish soap and spray on weeds.
Avoid contact with grass or plants, as vinegar can dry them out.
3. Mulching
A thick layer of mulch prevents weeds from getting sunlight.
Use wood chips, straw, or shredded leaves.
4. Hand Pulling
The simplest method for small gardens.
Remove weeds from the root to prevent regrowth.
5. Corn Gluten Meal
A natural pre-emergent that prevents weed seeds from germinating.
