Use of Roundup

Remember to read the label carefully. As a friend in Houston once
said to me in his unique Texas accent, "You caint bring um futher than
dead" Also, the product works on active foliage only when
temperatures are above 70 degrees.

Thanks everyone . Exactly the kind of information I'd hoped for. I'm
feeling quite confident about using it as I'd planned--Small spray
bottle.

the
paint brush idea will work wonders on the endless European buckthorn
that
keeps turning up wherever it can find a foothold. Kind regards.

I know people who use a paintbrush to apply Roundup to the
stems or root ends of woody shrubs/vines. Apparently it does work,
even though it isn't being applied to foliage.

kMy land slopes down into the woods on three sides and those
hillsides
were
covered in honeysuckle bushes when we first moved here. Our
technique was
to cut them off close to the ground with the chainsaw and then paint
full-strength Round-Up on the cut stems with a paintbrush. There
is very
little
honeysuckle left now.
