Weed blocker solution
In a spray bottle, pour in the vinegar, making sure to fill it all the way up. Use a funnel to add some table salt, close the lid of the spray bottle and then give it a good shake until well mixed. Go and spray it directly to the weed until it is all good and coated with the solution, leave it for 24 hours. When you come back, you’ll see the weed all dried up and completely gone. You can also try a combination of water with about 1-2 tablespoons of Castile soap. Spray it on the weed and leave it for 24 hours. You’ll see that the weed is all dried and gone, but there will still be a few visible greens. The simplest solution would be a kettle filled with boiling water, pouring it directly into the weed, and leaving it for 24 hours. It will also result in an all-dried-up weed, but it will leave a root.

Weed prevention
Place mulch anywhere you can around your tree trunks or garden bed, it should be 2-3 inches deep and it will smother all the weeds. For already growing weeds, if you can’t pull them off easily, then grab some scissors or trimmers, and trim them off all the way down so that they won’t sprout and spread their seed out in your yard. If you have grass in unwanted spaces, especially those growing out underneath your edging, you can get them out using a little trowel or shovel to dig up the roots.
