What Property Owners Can Do Remove invasive plants from landscapes Contractors for large jobs Dispose of yard waste appropriately –Treat stumps with herbicide Ortho Brush-B-Gon Roundup Super Concentrate Enforcer Brush Killer

Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) Eye protection Long sleeves Chemical resistant gloves Follow label PPE instructions!

Inactive xylem  Active xylem  Cambium and phloem Bark  Woody Stems

Cut as close to ground as possible Cut stumps level! Apply herbicide just inside bark (cambium) Treat entire circumference Treat within 15 minutes of cutting

Hack and Squirt Cut all the way around stem Cut all the way in to cambium Apply herbicide to exposed cambium Use dyes so you can see what’s been treated Treat within 15 minutes of cutting
