Large Area Weed Control In Arizona

RE: Large Area Weed Control In Arizona Post By Ann4 (Guest Post) (03/17/2005) We use vinegar as a weed killer. Mix it in a large sprayer. You can add a little dish soap to help it stick to the plants. Places like Costco sell vinegar cheaply in large bottles.

No profit in that, plus they WILL grow back eventually. Putting a couple of goats out there to forage will fatten them up and when they have cleared the land to your satisfaction or if they have babies, you can sell them & make a profit. Make the land pay for itself. Plus, they are environmentally friendly and loads of fun!

Bleach IS a long-term environmental hazard, especially if it gets into the ground water. Even though the rain will "dilute" it and wash it off your property eventually, it has to go somewhere, which will be the groundwater system or the gutter which ends up in the water system too. I would recommend vinegar instead. It's very effective, not nearly as hazardous to wildlife and the water supply, and will biodegrade.
