Brambles

[Stihl123]

wondering if anyone could please share any advice of best way to totally kill of brambles. i've dug as many out as i can but there is a load i can't reach and want to spray them with something that'll sort them out for good (hopefully)

thanks

Spot treat the cut stems with glyphosate based herbicide ( RoundUp) pretty safe bet it will not harm other plants. K

Grazon Pro is a selective (ish) herbicide for bramble. I believe it kills bracken as well but will leave grass unharmed.

How to get rid of brambles? Achieving bramble control can be done fairly quickly and simply. Our weed problem guide will...

 

Haven't tried it but I'm minded to give it a go as I'm trying to restore some chalk wildflower grassland that has been invaded by bramble and bracken. I've cut it down with a shredder blade but there's so much of it spot application isn't practical.

 

Grazon Pro still kills a lot of other species that I want to encourage but it's not as devastating to all green life as Glyphosate.

If you just want to restore grass it should be fine.
