Love the hack n squirt method.

[@josephcioni5293]

two questions: Does it kill the sprouted root trees also or do you have to treat them separately?

[@kaycountyosuextension692]

I think the answer is it can (key word can not will), but I'd go ahead and cut and treat the sprouted root trees as well.

Any follow up video?

What time of the year are you killing these Honey Locust?

[@kaycountyosuextension692]

This was in July. Cut stump treatments are quite effective throughout the year. I have found that using this treatment as the leaves begin to turn in the fall is especially effective. When trees start to go into dormancy the movement of nutrients starts going towards the roots, and that can be a more effective time of year to apply herbicide to a tree that was cut.
