Your Garage Already Has The Secret Weapon For Fighting Weeds
By SAKSHI KHAITAN
In the quest for a lush, weed-free garden without resorting to chemicals or expensive gardening tools, a surprising ally exists right in your garage: a pair of sharp pliers.
The sturdy jaws and ergonomic design of pliers make them perfect for precisely removing weeds that are deeply nestled between plants or lodged in driveway and paver cracks.
To use this hack, aim the pliers at the base of the unwanted plant's stem, and tug it straight out of the ground. Afterward, you can dispose of the vegetation in your compost pile.
For best results, use the tool when the soil is moist, either from a recent rain or a thorough watering. This softens the ground, making it easier to pull out weeds completely.
