Default How do I remove new shoots from a removed tree?

Roundup is a liquid weedkiller/herbicide. It is available as a weed killer
for gardens from supermarkets and hardware stores - just look for a
weedkiller containing "glyphosate".
You cut the problem shoots in your lawn, and spray or dab some roundup
solution on the wound - and be careful not to get any of the solution on
other plants or lawn. Keep doing this for any new tree shoots and the
problem should be solved in a few weeks.....

Hi Terry,

thanks for a speedy reply

In the afternoon of a warm day, cut the shoots and paint with round
up/zero.


Can I can what 'round up/zero' is? And by paint, do you mean on the cuts

after
I chop off the shoots?

Thanks again, cheers

Robin
