    Make Your Own Weed Killer

    Gin_and_tonicChemical weedkiller is expensive, stinky, and potentially hazardous. Fortunately, there is a better weedkiller out there, and it is one you can make yourself using comon household items.

    Combine an ounce of white vinegar, an ounce of cheap gin, and 8 ounces of water. Pour the mixture on the weeds, and they will die.

    Now, some of my friends and relatives would consider this a complete waste of gin, but I’m a bigger fan of having a weed-free garden than I am a fan of cheap gin!

    yes, but who would waste gin on killing weeds


    Ah, but we're talking about cheap gin. Not a waste at all!


    Yes, but how does it taste? Perhaps this is the start of the an amazing new martini called the the Weedkiller.


    Can you put it in a sprayer and spray it on the weeds? And will it have the same effect of killing the weeds?
