Default Using Sodium Chlorate to clear Horsetails...

If you can find it, the herbicide MCPA works fairly well on
equisetum. This is something of a mystery since no other
"hormone" weedkiller works on such a primitive plant.

But you can't use MCPA on your border -- it will likely kill all
he ornamentals there.
