Default dewberry vines

Bermuda grows back fast. A little Roundup may be the best answer. I don't
think herbicides should be used with out concern but sometimes drastic
action is the only way. Next to a herbicide you might try 20% vinegar. It
will kill the surrounding grass but not so permanently. The problem is that
the dewberries may not be killed permanently either. Then you can always dig
the plants up one by one. Over several years you will probably successfully
destroy all the dewberries.

Good Luck
Jim

How can I get rid of unwanted dewberry vines in the grass? I keep mowing
them but they are starting to stay low and grow close to the ground. I
just moved on this property, which was is an old neglected field. I'm
trying to get the bermuda grass to come back so I don't really want to
use any poison.

Does anybody want any dewberry plants?I've got a zillion!!

Thanks
Alan
