I easily killed patio weeds using 90p natural item
Weeds are a constant problem in gardens across the UK. The unwanted plants seem to reappear before you know it, and grow no matter the weather conditions.
TL;DR
- Lemon juice can be used as a natural weed killer due to its citric acid content.
- The method involves squeezing lemon juice directly onto weeds, aiming for the leaves and roots.
- Effectiveness is significantly increased on sunny days; rain can wash the juice away.
- The gardener purchased a 250ml bottle of lemon juice for 90p.
- This method is best suited for paths, paving, pavements, and driveways.
- Multiple applications may be necessary, as homemade weed killers are less potent than chemical alternatives like glyphosate.
- It is recommended to spray on a dry day.
