- Brush Bullet is a new way to control invasive trees that are consuming millions of acres every year.
 Mature cedar trees can steal over 20 gallons of ground water each day. Cedar trees also steal your lands vital nutrients keeping your land from prospering.
Brush Bullet was designed to target all unwanted plant species. After application of one Brush Bullet per 3’ of tree, Brush Bullet only requires 3/4” of rain to dissolve. Once dissolved, Brush Bullet is absorbed from the roots of the targeted plant, stopping its reproduction. The targeted plant will begin to decay within 90 days.
Targeted Plant Species
Alder, Ash, Aspen, Balsam Poplar, Birch, Black Cherry, Catclaw, Deerbrush, Dogwood, Elm, Hickory, Juniper, Locust, Oaks, Persimmon, Privet, Sourwood, Sumac, Sweetbay, Sweetgum, Tallow, Wild Cherry, Wild Plum, Whitebrush, Whitethorn, Willow, Yellow Poplar.Single stem plants. Multi-stemmed plants such as Mesquite, Huisache, Multiflora Rose, and Red Berry Cedar (Juniper). Smutgrass. Woody plants such as black cherry, blackgum*, dogwood*, elm, hawthorn, hickory, oaks, red maple, sweetgum and sumac and more.
Brush Bullet is a game changing herbicide. Industry costs for cedar tree removal can cost over $500 an acre. Using our Brush Pod Universal Applicator, Brush Bullet can be applied by air using a helicopter or other aerial platform such as drones. Using this method will save you hundreds of dollars per acre, leave zero footprint and stops the plant from reproducing once Brush Bullet has been absorbed. Read the label and apply only as directed.
On average, a helicopter using the Brush Pod Universal Applicator, can accurately apply Brush Bullet faster that any other method.
Helicopter Trial Average
3 hours ~ 200 acres ~ 24lbs Brush Bullet = Estimated $25/acre

So this guy is also a chemist damn hard to keep up with all his talents cowboy pilot tri athlete doing SEAL workouts he never ceases to impress me.
Awesome video 🚁😎 I swear I had buck fever🦌 when you were talking about the terrain….I was like yes he’s going to jump up just any minute !🤣 So great just to see all the wildlife on the ranch ! Petro location not to shabby either !😉 Prayers for you and Bonnie hope y’all start feeling better real soon !🙏💙🇨🇱 Happy New Year 2024🎉
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you for the fly over. Weeeeeee. I hope Bonnie feels better soon.
Thank you for bringing this to us that is a great invention. You have came up with keep it up. It's going to be a great help to us.
Happy New Year to the Abraham Clan🥳🎉!!
No worries about not doing a Christmas video, you've got a Life and a Family before you've got YTube viewers👍Sorry to hear y'all got the cooties from the kids, little germ factories that they are🤗😆
02:10 I think what you were going for here by saying the stump of the tree (that's what I call it too) what you're targeting with Brush Bullet is the Tap Root, as opposed to the Feeder Roots that branch out laterally. It's these Feeder Roots that most applications target which can cause a tree to NOT die out completely.
You can chop up Feeder Roots all day, the tree will just grow more. It's the Tap Root you REALLY want to target like with BB. There's only ONE Tap Root and if it's damaged, the tree cannot grow another. Kill the Tap Root, Kill the Tree. Less chemical being put in the soil the better for everyone in the immediate and long term Futures, so BB is fantastic with it's precise targeting and slowish dissolve. It ignores the Feeder Roots and works it way to the Tap Root.
Those crowns you mention showing up being a good sign that the tree is dying is spot on! Those are called Water Sprouts and they are indicative of the trees Survival Mechanism kicking in. You'll see this happen if you prune trees in your yard a little heavy or lop off large branches, it freaks the tree out and it panics, just nip them off a healthy tree and move on. But in THESE trees, because we know how BB works, we know it's a sign that the Tap Root has been poisoned and the tree is giving its Hail Mary as a last ditch effort at survival. Huzzah!
With so many successful experiments over this past year, have you been able to start seeing a difference in the landscape regarding more native species showing up where some of these trees were dominating? Seeing less sand and more soil? I could spend days walking your property and likely develop a crick in my neck from looking down so much😆I very much enjoyed flying around having a looksee!
Congrats on the success of Brush Bullet, the store set up looks great and I'm happy to hear so many people are ready to embrace it!
Hope this finds you with more fruit trees than last year (I wish this for everyone) and happy healthy bee hives ready for Spring! Take Care y'all!
Great video Jason. Very interesting on the trees. 👍👍
Happy New Year to you, Bonnie and the whole family! May you be blessed by a fantastic year!
Thank you so much for the deer run, its a good way to spend the afternoon when you have 50 mph winds.
Tomorrow is going to be nasty here
Awesome stuff hope it continues to grow for you !
Me too!
Can't help but not take off.. The concern and action to condition the soils, grazing lands should be everyone's concern.. especially the ranches..
Looking good!!
really like your channel,aspecially the heli stuff.I was wondering what your take on the whole robinsons safety thing is.
Any pictures of Max this hard horn season? Getting to feeling better the whole family 🙏🏻😇
I’ll post a short I post a lot of videos of him on my instagram
He is quite a accomplished guy😂😂😂
How is Bonnie's recovery from her recent procedure Jason? Back to good as new again? Good to see you back flying again post Holiday illness. Hope the Christmas season still brought happiness to your family. This is still an interesting application procedure you have in continued development. From your aerial tour, you sure have a bunch of trees the to practive your development skills on too. Keep up your good work with your audio system too. -Bob...
Bonnie is doing great. Thanks for asking. Yes I have plenty of trees to practice on. If I can just get the junipers and Mesquite trees under control on my ranch then Brush Bullet will be a success for me. I’m thinking there is I lot of land owners just like me
@@themendotaranch The videos you do post of Brush Bullet in action do suggest Brush Bullet is an effective product. Just not so sure that all ranchers happen to have a helicopter laying around. Some land owners may benefit from hand / on the ground operations. Also a solid drone operation could be something that more individuals could handle. Yes I keep following your videos and your product development / improvement!
Reminds me of Holly tree, they just make me cuss. They are so hard to kill.
I’d love to see some external footage of that flying lol
When are we going to get to see Max????? Come on Jason!! Let's see the Giant
I see him all the time and post him on Instagram
Once they are dead will you do control burns?
Thank you for sharing .when do your bucks loose there horns
You see a few loose them now but most in the end of February
My dad told me a long time ago when we were out hunting he said " listen son, it's so quiet it makes you want to pee". I passed that on to my son and he said, "DAD"!!!!! almost wet his britches.
Trunk!!!
Hope y'all are feeling better by now. Ok in your experience how long after it rains and the bullets dissolve (understand in West Texas in may take a few rain's) would it take #1 to be able to tell which tree's were treated and which were missed. #2 until The treated Juniper trees get to the state shown where the Crown starts to sprout.
Two months after an inch or two of rain. The crown will come out the next spring and die again around now. Every year is different
Does this brush bullet work on deciduous large leaf maples? I am in the PNW and have about 40 or so of these trees that I need to weed out. I could hand place the bullets at the base of the trees.
I’m sure it will
I was wondering do you have any TeePee Rings on your Ranch from the Native Americans.
Great Video. Sounds like The Brush Bullet is taking off for sure.
You can’t see any TeePee rings but you’ll find artifacts in a circle
On the mesquite, can it be used as bbg wood after treatment?
I'd guess not
It kills the roots but don’t know for sure. Great question
I wanna say Thank You for sharing the silence!
Is Texas Sacahuiste (Nolina texana) what you call Bear Grass?
We call it Yucca too
@@themendotaranch Thanks. I was pretty sure there was no Common Bear Grass there
What about your big buck max. Have you seen him
I see him all the time He is doing good but he did break his drop tine off
does it work on Salt Cedar and Russian Olive ???
It works great of Salt Cedar and Russian Olive. Just stay away from the water 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Roger that !!! @@themendotaranch
Yea, its too bad they aren't good feed. I've seen deer chewin on um, but they are purdy hungry to do that. Turkeys will eat the berries, but they are like chicken 😁Glad you guys are better. The same stuff visited us over the holidays in the concho valley.
They’re good at drinking water , multiplying and 🔥. Sound like that crud has been going around everywhere.
I saw a Comanche in the background
😁😁😁
Looks like such a good and fun place to fly your helicopter.. I can see why you like flying and killing the trees. Looks like fun going from tree to tree sideways and hovering. It's not your normal type of flying. Probably good for practicing your flying skills also. Not that you need any practice lol.
Yes it is fun and would be a great way to train a new pilot
video had autio almost all of it
Love those blue skies! I guess they are not painting your sky with chemtrails.
Give them time 😢
Not yet
Why you kill tree? Invasive?
Yes. The Juniper And Mesquite trees are very invasive.
