User's notes

This group discovered at bottom of a drainage line and forgotten to map with Field Maps Non-Treated. What is the best way to control? can it be sprayed and if so with what or should it be cut and dabbed like a woody weed?

Hi Steve818 could you recommend methods to tackle? it seems to spread particularly well at the drainage line.

Hi Waltraud. Cut and dab will work well. Also you can spray with Metsulfuron-methyl (brush off) as a Park Care volunteer under this permit:

excellent, thank you HarleyB
please see my recording of Bridal Creeper particularly Asparagus asparagoides (Bridal Creeper, Florist's Smilax) and Asparagus asparagoides (Bridal Creeper, Florist's Smilax) (I can dig up single plants).
