The gardens are in full bloom right now, but it's not just the fox gloves and roses which are burgeoning out there. It's the pesky weeds as well. Nevermind though, there might be a solution as one woman took to social media to share a tip for ridding the garden of weeds.
With the cost of living crisis continuing to deepen, weed killer might be slipping further down the essentials list. It's quite expensive and can easily run into double figures, especially if you have a large garden. But one woman swears by the £1.18 solution, which uses regular household items, to get rid of weeds and they're things you probably already have in the cupboard, MEN reports.
Sharing the tip on a money-saving Facebook group, she said she came across the instructions for making your own weed killer at home using a litre of white vinegar, three large spoons of salt, three large spoons of washing-up liquid and a spray bottle. No weed can survive such a mixture, she claims.
