Braken Spraying - Asulam

[Old Roots New Shoots]

Hi everyone,

 

I'm looking for a contractor in the South East (Surrey/Kent/Sussex borders) to spray some established bracken with Asulam.

 

Its growing through/around a section of recently laid hedge and is hampering its regrowth and the growth of planted hedge whips.

 

Its along a verge, growing within the hedgeline with a stock fence on the other side making management options pretty limited other than spraying.

 

I've searched on here and contacted the Bracken Control Group, but they don't know of any contractors operating in the area.

 

Does anyone know of anyone who carries the relevant tickets/authorisation to spray?

 

Many thanks in advance,

 

Joe

Marcus Spurway (Forestry) has the credentials and works all over Kent/Sussex, I haven’t got his details to hand, try googling him.
