Honeysuckle Removal

There are some important factors when deciding to get rid of honeysuckle.

 

Season

Spring: Not early spring! This will cause honeysuckle to spread rapidly, but late Spring is a OK

Summer: Drought season is the best conditions for using herbicides

Fall: Dry fall weather is a great condition to harvest

Winter: Frozen ground is not good, but wet soil makes for good pulling-from-the-roots conditions

Methods

Controlling Honeysuckle

Diluted Herbicide sprayed directly on the leaves of the targeted plants. Not too wet!

Getting Rid of Honeysuckle

Cutting at the stump and applying herbicide is a very effective method. Apply herbicide directly to cut surfaces (carefully).
