I've killed LOTS of it Element 4 uses cut stump Then use round up on seedlings works well after the First couple years Just pull up the seedlings they pull easy . From the second year on its EDRR "Early Detection Rapid Responce " you never quit once also started That's also the cheapest BTW you can use Round up on cut stump too But with E-4 you can Basel bark treat other woody pest I.E. ,,thorn trees Autumn Olive, Osage Orange,somewhat effective on honeysuckle But the bark on them makes it best to cut cut stump Is element 4 Garlon? Oil based? I'd have to look at my notes, but if it is, 1 quart in 1 gal of diesel for a basal spray. |

throbak you ain't kidding you are never done. Full eradication on a spot we thought about doing a food plot in one year....maybe tenth of an acre. Thing sat and kinda got forgotten...next fall had small ones popping up everywhere just a year and a half later.

Cutting the bushes and hitting the stumps with chemical is effective but too much work in my opinion. The forester that works with me simply sprays the leaves of the live bushes with chemical and it kills them.

What chemical is he using ? My arsenal herbicide will be here tomorrow & I am going to spray some bushes next week to see if this spray method works . |
