The strongest vinegar for killing weeds is vinegar that has a higher concentration of acetic acid such as herbicidal vinegar or horticultural vinegar that can be found at farm stores, online or garden centers.

Straight vinegar can be poured on weeds and the straight vinegar when poured on weeds will kill the weeds faster although if you dilute the vinegar the vinegar solution will go farther and kill more weeds.

The three ingredient homemade grass killer and weed killer is white vinegar, dish soap and salt.

To make the three ingredient homemade grass and weed killer start by filling a container with 1 gallon of white vinegar.

Next add 1 tablespoon of any dish soap to the vinegar.

Then pour in 1 cup of salt.

And next mix the solution together until all the ingredients are combined.

Then pour the solution into a garden sprayer and spray the weeds or lawn.

Once you spray the weeds or grass it can take between 1 day to 3 days for the weeds.

Vinegar kills most young weeds within 24 hours, so check the area you sprayed during the next 2–3 days to see if they wither away.

If the weeds are still standing tall or developing new growth, coat them with more of the vinegar solution.

Keep checking and spraying the weeds until they completely die out.

The homemade weed killer is more natural and will not harm the water table and harm the water that is below the ground like regular weed killers can do.

Bleach can also be used to kill off weeds as well and even kill ants and some other insects.
