Well the thing is lifting the pavement and its roots are crawling into my
drains and blocking them.

Also it is sucking all the water from the subsoil under the house and cracks
are appearing in the walls.

I want to get rid of it before something catastrophic happens!

You better have a very good reason to go around killing other people's
trees. Don't
expect any advice until you clarify this. I would also like to know why
you are killing
a tree.

The wooden plug will cleverly disguise the hole.
Do you think the copper sulfate will zap it?

I have been told that to kill a tree I have to drill a hole 6" deep

1"diameter into the trunk near the base and fill it with copper

and then seal the hole with a wooden plug.

Can any one advise me if this is true?
