Anyone have an luck on killing this invasive vine? My son and I picked up a neighbors yard to mow and that stuff is everywhere. Randomly growing in yard. There does appear to be a couple of mother trees of it. Plan on pulling runner vines, cutting big stuff and applying glyphosate to stump, and piling on there burn pile. Any ideas would be appreciated!!

If there are mother trees around glyphosate may not be a good idea, it could kill the mother plant. It probably will not due to you not spraying that much on the suckers but it does have a chance of killing the mother plant. Also check your state laws because in some states you have to have a license to spray a herbicide in a lawn care business

I am not specifically familiar with this vine but most vines , cut apply a gel RTU herbicide like Gordons to the cuts

to make sure you got all of it it usually helps to cut at ankle height and eye height so at a glance you can be sure you have it all around

Ah, the devils vine....I hacked mine down years ago, blotted out the house, got under roof shingles, it was a disaster.

Even though I tried to dig up all the roots, a tiny piece of root would send up a new plant, I would spray it with glyphosphate and it would die back, then come back again. Like the Terminator...lol
I fought new shoots for 5 years, finally had to dig under each shoot and get the piece of root, . I havn't had a recurrence in a couple years so I guess it's finally done

I wouldn't plant the stuff on my worst enemies property. These neighbors have it bad. The parents had planted it years ago, the parents past away a few years back, now it is like a jungle. I finally got the yard mowed, but wow. There are roots running ground level for 30 yards. A vine the diameters of my pinky was able to loop around the front tire and stop the mower. I'll probably suggest they by a 2 1/2 gallon jug of glyphosate and then pray!!!

Maybe use a weed flamer right after a rain so you don't start a forest fire. I love using a weed flamer. Maybe have a big fire extinguisher nearby just in case something gets out of hand.


wanna be goat farmer.

They have a stunning flower in the spring and look smashing on a Trellis or Pergola.
