Tree eradication
"Ted Mittelstaedt" wrote in message ... "elalamein" wrote in message ... Please dont get moralistic over this; believe me this job isn't something I will relish. However it has to be done. A neighbour has planted four Poplar trees on his/my boundary fence. He is an idiot. Poplar trees have only one real use, that is on a farm out in Kansas to use as a windbreak, planted hundreds of feet from the house. You really have to get on with killing these things as quick as you can. These are weeds! If you know so much about these trees please explain 5 anatomy differences between the woody root of a poplar and a woody stem of a poplar? As far as a suggestion -PRAY!!!!! -- Sincerely, John A. Keslick, Jr. Consulting Arborist http://home.ccil.org/~treeman and www.treedictionary.com Beware of so-called tree experts who do not understand tree biology. Storms, fires, floods, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions keep reminding us that we are not the boss. |

If you know so much about these trees please explain 5 anatomy differences between the woody root of a poplar and a woody stem of a poplar? There are differences? The only differences I ever saw was the woody root was below the ground, and the woody stem was above the ground. The second that the woody root erupted through the surface of the ground (and from what I saw just about all of the roots did this eventually, or so it seemed) it immediately turned into a stem, and a new poplar tree sprang to life. Or it did until I ran over it with my dad's lawnmower. There were weekends mowing that lawn that the -only- thing that had grown during the week was the poplar suckers. If your such an expert, name 5 things that poplar wood is used for OTHER than burning or making paper. Ted |

Does the fence run alongside a public accessway, footpath etc? How thick are the saplings? I am wondering whether in the dead of night you may be able to snap the *******s off near the base. Do a bit of damage to your garden as well. You may need to sacrifice a few plants or damage the odd one that was due to come out or get pruned back (save doing too much damage your side). Next morning 'discover' the carnage done to your garden and immediately march round to confront your neighbour. That will put him on the back foot and reduce his ability to blame you for snapping his trees. rob Another graduate of the Dick Cheney (Lon Chaney?) School of Charm;-) -- no, I didn't recommend blasting the neighbour in the face during a hunting trip, merely snapping his trees. Problem with the suggestions posted are the potential signs of deliberate poisoning. If you can make it look like a random act of vandalism minimal chance of it being traced back to you. rob Oh, what a tangled web you weave, . . . I'd go for the first idea but leave out the hunting trip and, ask for a jury of your peers (pet lovers). -- Billy Bush & Cheney, Behind Bars http://www.antiwar.com/eland/index.php?articleid=8282 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Movemen...George_W._Bush |
