I have a horrible problem with Sumac, which has infested a hill and
completly obstructs our view. There are hundreds of them. Is there any
other suggestion for solving this large scale problem.


As suggested in the other reply, cut down the tops and leave some leaf area
on the stalks for treating with glyphosate.

Plan B: lop 'em off at ground level, drill the remaining stumps, and pour in
root-rotting crystals.

Warning: you will get nasty sticky white sap on anything that comes into
contact with it.

I think meths will get it off, but I'm not absolutely sure about that.
Anyone?
