Keeping Weeds Out Of Your Lawn and Garden
The thought of attempting to keep your lawn and garden free from invasions of weeds, without blasting them with noxious chemicals might be a lofty ideal, but probably conjures up visions of sore backs and aching knees.
However, kneeling in the garden and snatching weeds by hand is not the only way to avoid using chemicals to kill the unwanted plants. In fact, there are some great ways to accomplish this end by working smarter, not harder.
Another effective approach to eliminating weeds from your lawn and garden areas is installing landscape fabrics. These specially manufactured fabrics will go a long way in helping you get rid of weeds without the need to spray toxic chemicals all over the landscape.
Keep in mind that vinegar is a “non-selective” natural herbicide, so if you choose to use it to control the lawn and garden weeds around your home, then you must take care to apply it only to the weeds.
For this reason it is not a good solution for use on lawns, other than in areas where the weeds can easily be identified and sprayed individually. However, it makes a fine organic solution to keeping weeds in check without the problems associated with chemicals.
