Will Organic Weed Killer Really Work on My Lawn?

April 11, 2022 By Tim Boyd

With the rising popularity of do-it-yourself projects, lots of people regularly ask us questions about organic weed killer options. People see DIY tips on television shows or Pinterest, and they start to think perhaps spraying their dandelions with vinegar would be a good weekend activity. Keep reading to consider Kemko’s professional opinion on how well organic weed killer will work on your lawn.

Popular Organic Weed Killer Options

  • Boiling water: If you want to carry a scalding hot teakettle around your yard, pouring the water on each individual weed, then more power to you. Be sure to wear rugged rubber boots to protect your feet and please, don’t assign this chore to your kids.
  • Vinegar: Experts most often recommended this option for weeds with deep taproots, such as dandelions. We aren’t sure about the science behind that theory, but prepare to spray weeds multiple times with a strong vinegar/water mixture before seeing results. Also, take care not to spray the surrounding grass shoots because they might be damaged in the process.
  • Fire: Be careful not to singe surrounding grass, and more importantly, don’t burn the house down.

If you’re going to creep around the yard, bending over each and every weed with a teapot, a vinegar spray bottle, or a blowtorch, why not just pull the weeds out while you’re hunched over? Your back is going to be screaming for days anyway, so why not cut to the chase? Yanking the weeds will be more effective than any of these organic weed killers.

Chemical Lawn Services

For most people, chemical lawn services are not so scary. After all, reputable lawn care companies only use EPA-approved products on their clients’ lawns. Scientists have tested these applications in independent labs, at universities, by government scientists, and by people all over the country, day in and day out. All that testing certainly leads to tweaks to the products that make them increasingly effective. If these products work for scientific experts, they can work for you.

Atlanta-area homeowners want beautiful, green, lush lawns. Because of the mild weather, it is possible for us to enjoy our lawns for much of the year. If your Atlanta lawn could use a face lift, Kemko is here to help. With more than three decades in the business, we know Atlanta’s turf types inside and out.
