A few years after laying paving slabs, weeds grow between the seams. This spoils the appearance of the paths and can lead to the roots turning out the tiles. If difficult-to-remove weeds appear in the seams, you can pre-treat them with a product based on vinegar and salt to easily remove them.
What you will need:
- vinegar essence 70%;
- water;
- salt;
- dishwashing detergent.
The process of preparing the product and treating weeds
To easily remove weeds between the tiles, you need to pre-treat them with a homemade solution. To do this, you need to dilute vinegar essence 70% in water in a ratio of 1:3. A tablespoon of salt and 8-10 drops of detergent are added to the solution. The last component is needed for better adhesion of the product to the leaves.
The solution is poured onto the weeds between the tiles using a watering can or sprayed with a spray bottle. It is better to do the treatment in the evening so that the smell of vinegar evaporates overnight and does not interfere.
After a day, the treated weeds will dry out and become soft.
They can be easily removed by hand or scraped off with a hoe. A plant treated with a solution will no longer be able to recover or grow again from the root.
