I like this technique because there is no mixing with a carrier. It is good you emphasized safe use. I used a variation of it a couple of years ago to kill a large autumn olive tree in our woods which is an invasive here in the Mid-Atlantic USA. I drill several approximately 1 inch holes per trunk with a 3/8" bit several inches apart and will refill a couple of times using Roundup Super Concentrate (50% glyphosate) applied with a plastic syringe. Doing three more now, started a couple of weeks ago in late April and clearly seeing effects. I prefer large specimens of this particular tree species to be completely dead with no leaves before cutting down and replacing with natives in late summer/early fall. We discovered dozens of sapling size autumn olives had infiltrated our small meadow when we moved in, no doubt as a result of the large ones in the nearby woods border. I just cut off and apply the herbicide to the sapling cut stems.

Thank you, I’ve two 50ft plus willow trees, whilst they can look beautiful one out front is damaging our house and cars, the one out back blocks light an fills garden and pool with debris resulting in 10 plus bags of debris a week. Both shed a branch this year having both trimmed at a cost of £700 each... After years of hell with these we’ve drilled a few holes 12 inches deep filling them with Gallup 360.

Your method worked in the spring contrary to what I've read. Maybe because you used a stronger concentration, a larger volume of Glyphosate and applied it deeper into the tree. So, I'm just going to go ahead and try it now instead of waiting until fall. Glad I found you!

I read the same.. Objective is to kill roots.. Fall, tree sends energy (sap) to roots.. Spring, tree sends energy (sap) to limbs/leaves.. Where the sap goes, the Glyphosate goes.. But, I applied last May and it worked.. I drilled roughly 1/3 into the tree.. 16" diameter with 5 1/4" hole..

The pear tree is well and truly dead, vine is happy, and birds love it. I never have to prune that tree again nor pick up the awful fruit that no one wanted.

[@theweilee17600]

Thanks. I wish I had watched this video before I cut down the jujube tree. I cut it down but the remnants of the roots in the ground, still growing till this day after a year. The shoots or suckers still coming out. The root is invasive and aggressive.

[@tongo117]

If the stump is still there you could drill into that and add the glyphosate..

[@theweilee17600]

@@tongo117 I already removed the stump. It's the broken roots that are still in the ground, they are still growing even with small pieces of the roots. Suck! It's over a year, and still growing especially it's hot now in Phoenix area. There is lot of activities under the ground. They are killing my trees and shrubs in silence.

[@loafandjug321]

@@theweilee17600 Let the tree suckers grow 1 ft high, mow them over with a lawn mower then IMMEDIATELY spray the sucker stumps with UNDILUTED weed killer. Repeat as needed. The fresh cut on the suckers will expose the tree cambium layer and absorb the weed killer which will kill the roots.

[@theweilee17600]

@@loafandjug321 I did not do that. I tried to dig out the root whenever the suckers came up. That has created a mess in my front porch, so many holes in there now. It wasn't a right way to do it. Because even the broken tiny roots still can grow suckers. Now I just leave it as it is. Like you said I let suckers grow and then put undiluted Glyphosate on them. It has been raining lately - monsoon in Phoenix area, that has helped suckers to grow. It's terrible, and I regret to plant this tree. Thanks for the tip.

Hey buddy. Can the chop and aquire method work. I don't have time for drilling

[@tongo117]

Don't know.. I've only done the drilling so not sure if glyphosate will work with that method..

Glad to have helped..

[@chasingthefish9042]

I use the same method with one exception I drill a hole in the base of the tree or into a root if possible. The tree is dead in a week. I dont even use an oz I think that is alot of concentrate.

[@tongo117]

Good to know.. My first time doing this.. If there is a next time I'll try using less and drilling lower..

[@ELECTROMARINEMANIA]

U killed a tree man ....oh god

[@shadychina1]

what is the best time to do this spring or full? Thanks.

[@tongo117]

Fall is best from what I've read because that's when the tree is going into dormant mode and sending more nutrients to the roots.. But I've done this twice once in April and once in May and it worked each time.. This is the other video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oWHKi3mjiK-FaLM

How much oz of Glyphosate is needed to kill a tree having 2.5 ft in diameter?

[@tongo117]

Since glyphosate is so cheap I would suggest drilling 2-3 holes to be sure..

[@hairymanonetwo]

Yes try at least drilling 3 holes.

How tall was that tree and what diameter did the trunk have? (Approximately) Sorry for my bad English I'm German

[@tongo117]

Someone else asked about trunk diameter so I measured and it was approximately 16" at the point where I drilled.. Height would be roughly 40 feet..

@@tongo117 Is it more effective to poison the roots rather than the tree trunk?

[@tongo117]

The glyphosate does make its way to the roots.. And kills them..

@@tongo117 I meant that if i dont poison the tree trunk but only poison the roots. Would be be just as effective?? more or less effective? I dont know how trees circulatory systems work. Thank you for your help.

[@KothandaRaman]

Hello, What is the equivalent product that I can apply to kill a tree in the UK, as I see 1 "Grass And Weed Killer 41% Glyphosate Concentrate is available only in the United States? I have checked couple of product like 1.Gallup Home & Garden Glyphosate Commercial Strength Weed killer and 2.Rootblast Super Concentrated Weed Killer Commercial Strength Glyphosate. There is no specific mention of percentage of Glyphosate. Kindly advise. Many Thanks

[@tongo117]

From what I found both of the brands you mention have a glyphosate ratio of 360 grams per liter.. Since there are 1000 grams per liter the 360 grams of glyphosate would represent 36%.. Not quite as strong as the 41% I used in the video, but close..

[@roger2008100]

Excellent video. I got 360g/litre glysophate. Going to try 50/50 solution with water.

[@ALLnOneVivek]

Brother please answer ...i have a big sissoo tree infront of my shop..i use ur method i drill 2 hole in stem and fill glyphosate 41...but after 2 days tree not suck the chemical...i filled 150 ml glypbosate..how much time the tree will die

[@syedfaizanhaji3154]

Vivek Tiwari sir probably 1-2 months , if the chemical is finely absorbed by the tree

[@charlotteerickson2486]

Then what the tree is dead and it looks like an eye soar different eye soar from before you killer it. To me this doesn't make sense.

[@HNTR308]

Why killing the tree so slow? Just cut it and done? (No troll, only curious)

[@tongo117]

Fair question.. Main reason is that the tree is/was surrounded by Camellias in every direction so if cut down at the base it would have crushed many of them.. If I hired someone to do it piece by piece it would have been very expensive as it is/was 200' from bucket truck access..

[@carbondostructural7691]

Thank you for this video I just order one, I have a big ass tree in front of my house I complain to hoa about it they continue to ignore me so it’s time to do something about it

[@randyman8984]

Ive cut some trees down and they keep sending new shoots back up near the stump. So I bought a small applicator like yours and cut it real close to the ground and then drop 1 or 2 drops on the part I cut and i thought it worked but started noticing new shoots coming up from the ground near the one I killed. Ugh. I also try this on saw briars and same thing happens. I am using the same stuff you are using excpet I bought it at tractor supply. Any suggestions?

[@tongo117]

I've used it on a few stumps.. Drilled into the top and added roughly the same amount as used in video.. It's worked every time..

[@Adrian-cw8yu]

Great video, cheers.

[@catholic3dod790]

If I drill the tree and anti weed liquid into the tree. Will the tree fall down by itself?

[@tongo117]

Yes.. It took 1.5 years for the limbs to fall and even now (5 years later) most of the trunk still stands.. This is follow up video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/apPTZaGKjq13eqM

[@lahirurandika9685]

Can i use this method for big cocunut tree? Answer please............

[@tongo117]

Glyphosate is a non-selective herbicide.. Meaning it should kill anything/everything.. So yes, it should work on your coconut tree..
