Or hire a crew with brush-hogs? A controlled-burn might be better, but not in woods. You can spray triclopyr along the bottom of the stems rather than cutting each stem, but I doubt that you would get good coverage on the vines three-feet or more from the edge of the clump. This would at least kill the outer plants, but you'd then have to remove the dead stems to get access to the inner ones. I think you're looking at a multi-year project. | |
