Large Area Weed Killer

I have a small back yard, all you see is weeds. I want to kill the weeds and turn the yard and then plant new grass seed. What kind of home made weed killer should I use to kill the weeds before growing new grass?

Hardiness Zone: 5a

Thank You, merlene for your answer. I'm going to do just that. What a great idea.

You should probably use a barrier method because any chemical will probably affect the new grass seed. Use black plastic to cover the weeds so they don't get light. I've also heard of using clear plastic which "cooks" the weeds. There is more info if you google the topic online.
