It’s a good idea to remove weeds at least once a week, but that depends on what the weather is like. Typically, the best time to remove weeds is spring and summer. However, pulling weeds in the morning or early evening (when it’s still light out) can provide relief from the heat. Killing weeds in flower beds can take time, but it's worth it to keep your flower beds thriving and looking pretty.

Natural weed killers have fewer toxins than chemicals and are a safe and effective option for weed control in flower beds. The following are some of the best chemical-free ways to kill weeds in flower beds:

• Mulch
• Weeding by hand
• Vinegar (be careful, as vinegar can also kill nearby plants)
• Corn gluten meal

You might be tempted to use salt, but while salt kills weeds and plants, it poisons the ground and gets into the groundwater. It’s best to stay away from organic weed-killer recipes that call for salt.
