Southern Ag Brush Killer 8.8% Triclopyr (Vines, Hard-to-Control Plants, Stump Sprouts), 1 Gallon

It's perfect, just forget the rest and use this. It will kill all woody vines and invasive weeds. It's much cheaper than roundup brand and works as well as any I've tried. It can take longer than you think for woody material to die back but give it a few weeks and hit it again for any you missed.Wear PPE when handling this stuff for your own safety!

Here in the Pacific Northwest, keeping Himalayan blackberry from taking over is a full time job. But this product WORKS. Fast knockdown, and kills to the ground.

Great service and great product

Most important was the value, given it works as well as any I have used in the resent past.Dislike was it is very slow to work.

I’ve used this to kill a lot of poison ivy but don’t count on brush killer alone to do the job. Poison ivy can grow long and deep and does a great job hiding itself.The best solution is to pull as much of the vines by hand as possible (wear long gloves, long sleeves, pants, eye and face protection, and keep some poison ivy soap handy), making sure to carefully pull as much of the roots as possible. Afterward, spray the area with brush killer, especially where roots broke off, to kill what remains. Even then, you should still keep checking the area regularly for regrowth for a couple of years because poison ivy is stubborn. Another tip: pull the vines after it rains while the ground is still wet to get them out easier.I’ve tried only spraying the plants without pulling them (based on the reviews, it seems like a lot of people do this) but you’ll just end up playing whack-a-mole with the plant as parts of it survive and sneakily grow into other areas. Hope this helps and good luck!

I sprayed brush last year extensively but had no results. This year I used it on common weeds two weeks apart with no results. Poor product.

I bought this to knock back a large English Ivy stand. I have used surfactant every time and started at 4oz/gal. This rate made it wilt but it recovered. A month later, I mixed 8oz/gal and it stopped growth but is not dying. Another month later I mixed 12oz/gal and one week later the leaves have dropped over and it looks like time it will hopefully die. Not sure if a single application at 12oz/gal would work but I would start there if you are trying to kill English Ivy. I will be purchasing another brand next time as I could have just gotten a bunk mixture as others have claimed in other postings, but I also have read English Ivy is tough to kill. Who knows.*****uodate. Does not kill English Ivy no matter the rate or the inclusion of surfactant

Yellow archangel (false lamium) is a non-native plant that grows far too well in the Pacific Northwest and for years I have been in a losing battle trying to get rid of it!It all started more than a decade ago when my neighbor planted some along our property line. Over time, all the archangel migrated into my yard. At first it looked nice, but once it started spreading, I realized that this was no typical garden plant.Yellow archangel is almost impossible to pull out or dig up once it's formed large swaths with intricately matted root systems. Slice through the roots and several new plants will grow from each cut section. As I watched it spread across the back yard and side yards, I was not happy. But once it started moving into the greenbelt behind our property, I felt I had to take serious steps to stop it.I contacted my city's plant control department and asked what I could do. They suggested using horticultural vinegar. I tried it, but its application requires all kinds of extra work, like covering the sprayed plants with sheets of black plastic that are weighted down for several weeks after which you have to regularly stomp on the plastic. The acid plus cutting off light/air plus stomping must be repeated until there are no signs of life in the plant. While this is doable for a small area, it's not reasonable for large expanses and certainly not for sloped yards like mine. Also, the horticultural vinegar is hard to find and it's extremely expensive considering the huge amounts you have to apply.Some people have had success using boiling water instead of the vinegar, but how to safely get enough boiling water up and down stone steps to all the places it would need to be applied seemed an insurmountable task.Last year I brought in goats, but the goats would only eat a little of the yellow archangel! They don't like it because it gives them stomach trouble!Finally, I found the Southern Ag Brush Killer for sale at Amazon and decided to give it a try. On a sunny, dry day, I carefully sprayed it on three test areas. Two weeks went by and nothing happened. A week later, some of the yellow archangel leaves started looking a bit dried around the edges. Finally, a full month after the initial application, the yellow archangel that I sprayed is either dead or dying. I have never been so happy to see a plant's demise! I am definitely ordering more Southern Ag. I have to admit that, despite my being careful when spraying, I did kill two nootka roses, but those are easily replaceable. I'm just SO HAPPY to find something that is getting rid of the awful Yellow Archangel!
