Copper will definitely kill tree roots...
and they do make copper nails in different sizes, from roofing nails to
very large ones... check with local hardware store that might be able to
order them for you.

Also something called ""Copper Sulfate"" crystals will also kill tree
roots..
Hope this helps.... ~ Webb ~

directly into the trench as a barrier. Assume maybe that's what
you're talking about ???
