Yes it works but it also plays **ll with your soil bcause it leaves a high salt content. It kills just like road salt kills plants. It just sucks the moisture right out of the plant.

PS: It is not environmentally friendly. Gasoline, Diesel fuel and H2SO4 also work but I wouldn't use them either.

A strong vinegar solution also works and you can get Horticultural Vinegar that is properly registered for this purpose.

I am tired of hearing about all these home remedies that are supposedly better and safer than the "chemical" products.

Remember that even Di-hydrogen Monoxide can kill you.

Sorry but that is my rant
