Whoa, I didn’t know this!

Spread layers of newspaper (about 5-10 sheets thick) over affected areas to block sunlight.

Moisten the newspaper and cover with mulch for better efficiency.

Apply a thick layer of mulch to your garden beds to starve weeds of sunlight.

Organic mulches can also add nutrients to your soil as they decompose.

Mix a solution of three parts salt to one part water, and apply it directly to the weeds.

Use sparingly to avoid harming other plants and soil health.
