The “angry landscaping” is my favorite 😂 I’ve thought many times how I should pull out the AR with a full mag and pulverize these bull vines or “wait a minute” vines. But no, angry landscaping leads to poor choices 🤣
Great video! I’ve been doing this for many years and it really works well. A little trick I learned along the way is get yourself some copper roofing nails to further enhance the chemical process. Works wonders on most stumps. They must be copper. I’ve tried HD and galvanized nails, but the copper seems to set off the strongest reaction. After you cut the trunk down low ( 3-4” off the ground max), drill some small holes (4-6) into the fresh cut. Go in a few inches (2-3” or so). A little deeper is even better on bigger stumps. The bigger the stump, the deeper you drill, and the more liquid you use. A few more holes helps too. The cut should be as flat as possible. Not angled. After you drill the holes, immediately paint the stump with Roundup or any good herbicide that has Glyphosate in it… at least 40%, which means the undiluted stuff, full strength. I carefully pour a tiny bit right into each hole too. We’re talking about 1/4” +/- diameter holes. An eye dropper works well for this. Let it soak in well for a minute or two, being careful to avoid runoff if it’s near any plants you want to keep. Immediately after you apply the liquid, hammer a copper nail down into each hole, full depth. If the hole is slightly wider, angle the nail in slightly so it grabs and holds. Nails should about 1”-1.25” long. The head of the nail should contact the top of the cut stump or break the surface slightly. Wear gloves and don’t spill the herbicide on anything else! The stump will usually die after a while. Certain plants may need a repeat dose. If the tree/bush has a tendency to send out suckers, do the same thing to each surface sprout when the stalk is at least 1” thick. Same procedure…. Cut, drill, paint, and nail. Works like a charm. 👍🏼 I’m sharing because some one shared this with me many years ago. I’ve been gardening for 60 years. That’s what gardening really is about. Sharing. ✌️
I’ve seen the copper nails on Amazon, so you shouldn’t need Indiana Jones to find them. 😉 And I used a picnic-type ketchup bottle to apply the Ortho. Plenty Ortho contained in a bottle with a narrow, long tip to dispense well away from you! 🤜🏼🤛🏼👍🏼 Hope the blood, sweat, and tears (yes….all three for a solid month) will pay off in the spring.
@@larondabourn6610 copper nails are readily available. They are commonly used in the roofing trade. They were available long before Amazon. I know this because I was a tradesman for 42 years before I retired 😉 Hope the technique i detailed worked for you 🙂
@KLo as long as your cut stump surface is a few inches across,it should work fine. Just be careful not to put any herbicide near other plants you want to keep. Good luck!
I'm curious how come you didn't use the same method you used on the grape vine, on the vine you showed us first? I'm garden dumb but it seems like a waste of round up (plus it kills bees), to spray a bunch of weeds on a tarp that would surely die if cut off from their main source? Sorry if I'm ignorant. I am but I'm learning as I go. Lol! Thank you for the video!
The vines will die, sure, but wrapped around that tree like it was, it would damage the tree too. Best to pull it off the tree and spread like he did so the roundup stays off the lawn and the root slowly sucks it up. Cutting them alone doesn’t work because they come right back and spring up in 5 more spots. The root sucks in the moisture of the round up like a drink of water, and slowly dies, killing off any possible regrowth elsewhere. These types of vines need tricking that’s it’s just a normal day, they were just disturbed a bit. You cut them, they become aggressive and grow replacements 3x faster. You cut them then paint the stem, you’ll have 3-4 sprouts of new growth before the round up fully kills it. But you’re right, it takes the patience of a saint to wait. I’ve not yet had the patience to do this. I just rip them out the ground, throw them in burn pit and on to the next one. I’ve never managed to “rid” my yard of them this way, and I know why, I’m just impatient and hate the look lol. Angry landscaping leads to poor choices. Like shooting your problem brush 😂
Thanks for sharing your technique! I work to remove as much of the offending vines as fast as possible. Hedge trimmer to cut it all down to size, works for the thin green and variable grey/brown vines. Chop them to pieces, let nature degrade the remains. That clears out the area fast and well. Locate the base of any larger vines, use a RYOBI ONE+ HP 18V Brushless Cordless Compact One-Handed Reciprocating Saw to cut such vines off of trees. Pull up as much as able to expose secondary roots, kick with boots or pull like Popeye! Tree saved. Check back for any regrowth in a couple years. I use a hand spray bottle with undiluted herbicide, no time for paint brushes, no carrying bulky sprayers, as there are many trees to save, and little time!
These vines have me upset. Taking over everything on the property. You not only gave a way, but did it in a funny and creative way. So Thank you. Going to give it a shot. Noo. Not with a gun...but round up. Hope it works. Will let you know how/if it did. Wish me good luck!!!
Two questions: 1) if I don't need to be selective, after cutting the vine where it enters the ground I could simply spray the fresh cut and there would be no need for the paint brush correct? 2) if a vine has taken over an entire fence, and I don't need to be selective I could spray the entire area with roundup promax?
Just bought a house, and I've got woody vines almost as thick as the trees they're on! This stuff has been unchecked for many years, I've got alot of work ahead of me 🤦♂️
Dude I feel that, I've been fighting the vines the previous owner let go unchecked for months now. Some of theses vines were legit softball sized. Make sure you check for new growths after it rains. Good hunting brother.
Absolutely! Shotguns are also amazingly effective on old cars and old electronics that don't work. Shooting things may not necessarily fix them, but at least then, you can be quite certain as to why they don't work.
we get one here in north carolina that has little yellow flowers on it that seems impossible to get rid of it also seems to have thorns on it which makes it even more difficult to remove.
I have some high hopes for this channel. I'd like to share all I've learned over the years, and maybe save some people the pain and frustration of learning things the hard way (failures and mistakes) like I had to, before there were things like UA-cam and the internet. I do face some real challenges though, like having very little time (I work 50+ hours per week and have an hour and a half commute time.) and knowing next to nothing about computers and the internet. I'm learning it all by myself through research, trial and error. Just like I did with cars, so many years ago. It's a slow process for me. Someday, I hope to make enough money doing this, that I could pay for health insurance. Then, I could make enough money just doing repair work at home, that I could devote full time to this channel. Probably never happen, but it's something to shoot for. Thanks for watching and commenting.
fixyourself Yeah, you have a lot on your plate for sure. Here's to you being able to put together more vids in the future. At least the great thing about UA-cam is that there aren't any deadlines. I'm actually going to try your vine method here because I have those thick ones that need the paint brush. Thanks again for posting it
Do you have any advice to kill Sandpaper vine?? We’ve cut root of vine separating from vine and painted it with undiluted Round up, but the vine roots are growing in the grass and so close to our house. The vine looked like it’s been growing 50 years it is a beautiful sculpture I love but what is growing underneath is of concern . Do you have any advice please I’m in Australia 🇦🇺 thank you
Does the season or growing cycle (dormancy, growing, flowering) of the vine make a difference on how effective these treatments are? I heard it’s futile to do in spring, but if done in fall...the leaves send their energy (with the poison) to their roots much better...unfortunately I’m more motivated when I can clearly see them growing in early spring when everything else is still dormant.
Thank you! The rain lately has made the kudzu grow faster around here. I do worry about you handling that roundup though but I imagine any other strong herbicide would be just as bad. So far I’m just pulling up the rope like roots as far as they will go but I don’t think that’s killing the plant off.
I wish I would have watched this video before I cut my vines. But at least I know what to do when they eventually grow back. Also, I cut one vine non-tarzan on the wrong fork so I think I can still chop it at the origin and apply the roundup. Thanks. And I love that you shot the tree 🤣
Hey, that sure was a great tip. I got some sucky vines in my yard I need to get rid off. This painting technique sounds just what I need to do. Thanks 👍
Does this work for vines that spread through the potato balls under ground?? Specifically bitter melon? Someone planted that behind me and it is taking over everything in my yard. Thx
Take machete cut the root out and dump straight round up directly into the hole. No need to waste your time with tarps and paint brushes when you ha e multiple acreage to keep up with gotta get it done and move on to the next thing
The vine you could not name at the end was probably the Kutdzu vine brought to the US from Asia years ago. It is a very invasive Vine that will kill other trees and grows the rapidly. My yard was overtaken by it. We thought it was wild wisteria but after watching several videos it appears to be the k u t d z u Vine. I also had to cut them and got two goats to help me get my yard back. After a major hurricane hit the vines that were already there really took over where I could not use about 50% of our yard from overgrowth and underbrush due to dense Vines in the wooded areas. Now we could walk through the overall majority of the yard and the goats are eating up the rest. Roundup is a direct cause of cancer so we will avoid using it. I thought you were going to paint the vine stumps with regular paint.
Please don't use Round-up. It is absolutely horrible for humans, animals, and the environment. It's just an example of how greedy people will do anything to sell a product, no matter how bad it is.
Thanks for the video! Do you have any ideas for how to get rid of "field vine"? I've been spraying it with roundup and it just seems to die and then come back or not die at all. Maybe I should use the round up concentrate?
Round up will kill any green plant. That is why it is called a "non-selective" herbicide. It's just a matter of using the correct mixture and applying it properly. You are on the right track when you mention buying Round-up concentrate. Even though it is less convenient than "Ready to use" roundup, you can make a higher potency mix than the ready to use Round up. Just make sure you: 1) Read the directions 2) Wear the proper personal protective equipment. (Gloves, goggles, etc.) 3) Follow all other applicable safety rules. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Excellent video. I have trumpet vine invading my garden from everywhere. I'm in Europe, don't know what I'll get if I go to the store and ask for "roundup". Anyone know the name of the actual product?
I don’t know the answer, but I just want to say ME TOO! We’ve had two years when health problems and caretaking made working in the backyard. You can’t take a step with find a stump of new growth and you can’t take without snagging your rake on a vine. 🤨 They have got to go! I may be outnumbered but it’s them or me, and I’m bigger than them. 🤜🏼🌱🤛🏼. So far…. 💤😕 I wish you the best of luck and an overwhelming victory in reclaiming your land!! 🥇
Roundup contains a Chemical called Glyphosate which is the main active ingredient. Some countries in Europe are beginning to ban the use of glyphosate and more countries will be getting on board with it.
For the green (Tarzanzian) vines, I was using regular old Roundup concentrate at the rate of 6 oz./gal., because that's what I had in the sprayer. If I had to mix some specifically for that purpose, I probably would have gone with 8 oz./gal., but the 6 oz./gal. worked just fine. Any type of Roundup that I know of, would work as long as you follow the mixing and application directions. For the woody (Non-Tarzanzian) vines, I used Roundup concentrate straight out of the bottle and applied with a paint brush. For this you need to use the concentrate. The "ready to use" Roundup is too weak to kill the stump of a woody plant. Thank you for watching and commenting.
Prybar expose the root crowns raised up (whatever it takes) and cut them off from the roots. Or if there's no root crown (such as with Oriental Bittersweet) pull out as much of the main root ball as possible. Conserving Carolina has some good stuff like the Kudzu Warriors... that works.
I suppose I could soak them in a bucket of weed killer rather than laying out on a tarp, either way, you just made my task seem less daunting. Greenbrier vine I got.
How come I don’t see you kill any poison ivy vine, huh? You’re too scared of them? They are the most plentiful vines of them all and they are the most destructive as well!
I keep having bush killer vine popping up all up the alley and front yard since hurricane katrina. I need something that will will get the bastards because once june comes around (i live outside NOLA near da bayous) i cannot go outside and do anything in the heat. (dr.s orders)
If you can pull the vine outta the tree, and see where it's growing outta the soil, why bother spraying it? Just yank it out by the roots. (Looks like you had a good crop this year. Cattle corn?)
Is that the hiddeous Kudzu??? I'm dealing with trying to deal with weeds from both neighbors who let noxious weeds creep and go to seed all over. Worst one is quackgrass-ugh. Also field bindweed, and bellflower creeping sneaking beyond the fence. Neat idea using the tarp down and having at it. I was thinking of adding dish soap to roundup so it sticks better-has not been working very well. Great tips-thank you.
Conserving Carolina, the Kudzu Warriors will show you how. It looks hard but it really isn't that bad, getting the crown is all you need. They recommend Transline for herbicide. I have sprayed with Dow various products and devastated patches only to have it come back with a vengeance.
GOOD VIDEO-I wish I could reach my neighbors bushes to kill these dang vines. I have to spray brush killer. There bushes have vines even coming through a wooden fence. They have let their bushes grow up to 15 ft.
This man shot a damn tree.
He's the best hands down!

Its pretty funny
I'm so glad that no one was standing on the other side of those shots. 😆 I feel like shooting my vines too.

For vines, I use a "needle oiler" bottle filled with Roundup. This allows me to apply Roundup precisely where I want it. Cut, apply, move on.
What is that??
@@Jesus-x3da small bottle with a needle for dispensing liquid in small quantities
no more roundup!!!be careful!!!!
How long did it take to kill the “Tarzan” vines when you put roundup directly on the root?
I came for the info, stayed for the dad jokes. 🤣❤️
Best intro for a youtube video I've seen in a while 🤣
It's like a vine execution. The other plants in the area will tell tales of the Reckoning for generations.

Same here! Our neighbour used to grow vines and flowers. They are overtaking my yard. Oh boy 😅
Can you just cut the majority of that vine so there is only a foot or two of it left before spraying? That way you would use less round-up?
It's possible It needs all the surface area to absorb the round up so it will kill the roots, but that's just a guess.
Which round up do you use? For using the brush. What chemicals should I look for to buy?
Good humor for a good cause! Thanks for the tips! Can't wait to give it a try. One questions, does it matter what time of year this is applied?
The shotgun trick didn’t work on poison ivy but made me feel great. I will carry my 12 gauge on the spray cart from here on out.

For the woody (Non-Tarzanzian) vines, I used Roundup concentrate straight out of the bottle and applied with a paint brush. For this you need to use the concentrate. The "ready to use" Roundup is too weak to kill the stump of a woody plant. Thank you for watching and commenting.
Oops! I got the vines mixed up, the green ones are the non-Tarzanzian and the woody ones are the Tarzanzian vines.
Whats regular round up? I need more info. Does the bottle say regular?
Can you use something besides roundup?
Great job on killing those vines, thank you for the tips👍
Thanks for the advise, I have a couple of different vines growing into my sewers and this will definitely help. Thanks
Will this work for bamboo?
Alright, however use of roundup is problematic. Any other suggestions? Otherwise, thanks.
Prybar expose the root crowns raised up (whatever it takes) and cut them off from the roots. Or if there's no root crown (such as with Oriental Bittersweet) pull out as much of the main root ball as possible. Conserving Carolina has some good stuff like the Kudzu Warriors... that works.
Did he just shoot a tree-
This man just passed away from cancer caused by the round up... Quite the irony!
How do u know

You just made my life easier.
😂😂😂 I HATE THESE VINES!!! They are everywhere and every year it is a battle
even in the middle of no where a plane flys over head disturbing the peace of the video...
I have to do a little shopping but I like your method! I'll be at Lowe's asap. Lol Thanks!
Wow...the gun part was a little over the top!
Is Round Up harmful to pets?
This dude has cool vibes..I like em
Fantastic! Thanks for this very helpful tip!
I suppose I could soak them in a bucket of weed killer rather than laying out on a tarp, either way, you just made my task seem less daunting. Greenbrier vine I got.
That's a pretty good idea.
Excellent intro excellent grapevine joke 😅
Why not cut the vine and spray a smaller portion?
Thanks for the video !
Like Frankenstein vs the Wolfman!
Thanks so much for this!
How come I don’t see you kill any poison ivy vine, huh? You’re too scared of them? They are the most plentiful vines of them all and they are the most destructive as well!
I don't have any to kill. I've never run across poison ivy on my property.
Sit directly in poison oak and ivy while doing all this also
Plastic bag with paper towels soaked with round up.
Stuff vine in bag. Tie off and wait a couple days.
There goes the neighborhood
What about the poor little tarp? Will it live? 🤣
"Tarzanzian" LOL.
I keep having bush killer vine popping up all up the alley and front yard since hurricane katrina. I need something that will will get the bastards because once june comes around (i live outside NOLA near da bayous) i cannot go outside and do anything in the heat. (dr.s orders)
no need to spray it on the tarp, just cut the root as deep as it goes or take it out of the ground n it dies fast!!
I need to see the "after shots" roundup is a foliar herbicide and i'snt supposed to work that way.
I thought you were hunting gophers!!
If you can pull the vine outta the tree, and see where it's growing outta the soil, why bother spraying it? Just yank it out by the roots. (Looks like you had a good crop this year. Cattle corn?)
Is that the hiddeous Kudzu??? I'm dealing with trying to deal with weeds from both neighbors who let noxious weeds creep and go to seed all over. Worst one is quackgrass-ugh. Also field bindweed, and bellflower creeping sneaking beyond the fence. Neat idea using the tarp down and having at it. I was thinking of adding dish soap to roundup so it sticks better-has not been working very well. Great tips-thank you.
Conserving Carolina, the Kudzu Warriors will show you how. It looks hard but it really isn't that bad, getting the crown is all you need. They recommend Transline for herbicide. I have sprayed with Dow various products and devastated patches only to have it come back with a vengeance.
Thank you for sharing the video🙏
GOOD VIDEO-I wish I could reach my neighbors bushes to kill these dang vines. I have to spray brush killer. There bushes have vines even coming through a wooden fence. They have let their bushes grow up to 15 ft.
You only need to spray one leaf on the vine and it will die.
oh man - Roundup? hmmm. that tarp is now tainted. gotta be a better way
What if you didn't follow it?
awesome thank you
