Borax Is The Weed Solution Your Garden Needs
By KELLY CATLIN
A solution of Borax and water can effectively eliminate weeds from your garden. This mixture is a safer alternative to commercial weed killers that often contain harmful chemicals.
To create the solution, thoroughly mix a large cup of Borax with two and a half gallons of water. If you need less weed killer, simply reduce the proportions accordingly.
Spray the Borax weed killer directly onto the weeds, and avoid other plants as it can harm them. For best results, apply the solution over two consecutive dry days.
If weeds persist after the initial treatment, repeat the process after two weeks. This method is particularly effective on weeds growing on sidewalks or between patio pavers.
