Weeds are everywhere—lawns, parks, roadsides, driveways, my garden, even busting their way through asphalt and cracks in sidewalks. Weeds thrive without fertilizer, love arid conditions, and require no care or attention. If you don’t want weeds to take over your garden, yard, or neighborhood, you need a reliable and inexpensive way to take them out.
There are a number of effective ways to kill weeds. Some involve chemicals or require digging. The problem with chemical weed killers is they aren’t always effective, and they can be expensive and cause health problems. Sure, digging is always an option, but now we’re talking heavy tools and a lot of sweat. I say we look to nonchemical, cheap, and relatively easy ways to kill weeds that really work.
