Is there a weedkiller you can use when you have kids and pets?
Question:
Answers:
Here is a great earth friendly weed killer recipe:
one gallon white vinegar (smaller mixture, use 4 cups)
1 cup regular table salt (smaller mixture use 1/4 cup)
couple squirts of liquid soap (dish or hand soap) - this is just to help the mixture cling to the weeds
You’ll want to heat up some of the vinegar to totally dissolve the salt or your sprayer will get clogged. Also - don’t pour hot liquid into your sprayer, let it cool down. I just use one of those sprayers you can pick up at the garden center or grocery store.
In the morning, on a sunny day when there is little chance of rain - spray this mixture on the weeds. It works like a charm and does not injure any wildlife (human or otherwise).
Why not just get them adopted, it is cruel to use weed killer on them?
Yes there is, not sure of names but if you look at the packaging it will tell you if its safe for kids and pets.
you can burn them with a mini torch when the kids and pets are inside the house. about once a week is good.
Round up or path clear are safe to use if you have kids and pets and lasts for 6 months
All weedkillers are safe to use with animals and children, you just have to keep them away while it's still wet. Remember to read the label.
