Yard problems

I have some of the most annoying vines in my yard.
As kids we called the "Great vines" but i am not sure what they are really.
This crap is like kudzu!!! I can not kill it. All I can do is keep it at bay. It laughs at roundup.
Can some one give me some ideas on how to kill this stuff? If the answer is chemical, there is nothing around it to worry about cause it chokes out everything. So give me the stuff that kills it all.

I have used Eraser before and it killed everyting that it touched. Try it full strength with no water added in your sprayer.

Eraser is nothing more than glyphosate (same as Roundup) under a different name. If you are trying to buy glyphosate, look at the chemical label and you generally can save some money. Look at the active ingredient and percent of active ingredinet and buy the cheapest one.

if you have a bermuda grass yard, spray some MSMA on it. Just mix it a little strong. With this heat, it will kill it.

No, no, no. If you want to snuff out vines sho nuff you're going to have to purchase Ally, the co-op equivalent of escort. It will smoke it.

I bought some stuff from Ortho once that was called bruch cutter or something like that. I mixed it twice as stong as recommended and it burned down everything in its path. I was trying to rid myself of some privet hedge I had cut back but was coming back from the remaining root system.

Got it at Wally world or Home depot...pretty tough chit for over the counter.

The Brush cutter he is referring to is a type of woody plant killer, imazipyr, triclopyr. Look for a woody vegetation type herbicide, but be careful, alot of these chem. hit the ground and don't stop there, they get into the root system of close trees and can kill or severely stunt them if the rate is strong enough. Read the Labels!!!

you can try prometon, but read about it before you use it. Nothing will grow there for up to two years. No trees, no grass, no vines.
