How to get rid of aspen

The aspen on personal plot can strongly complicate the gardener's life. The insidiousness of this breed of trees is that over time the aspen can give abundant young growths of which to get rid is problematic. To exempt the site from undesirable plantings, it is possible to apply one of the checked ways.

It is required to you

  • - koltsevatel;
  • - herbicidal medicines;
  • - protective gloves or mittens;
  • - saw;
  • - drill with drill of large diameter;
  • - polyethylene film.

Instruction

1. Use method of cross-over of trees for fight against aspen. The special device – koltsevatel is for this purpose used. It consists of two plates, pivotally connected and coming to an end on the one hand with operating part. It is possible to perform the procedure of cross-over of trees at all seasons of the year. Consider that the banded aspen perishes not at once, and gradually.

2. Prepare koltsevatel for work. Capture aspen trunk coal plates that teeth have densely entered wood bark. Squeeze handle and turn teeth around tree trunk to put to trunk ring wound. It is the best of all to apply such way if diameter of aspen is about 10 cm. The circular cut is carried out at the height about 120-130 cm.

3. Surely close ring cut. Otherwise the tree will not die off. Advantage of the specified method is that in this case the banded aspen will not give root offsprings. Even if over time from roots the young growth will go, then in the first vegetative period the offsprings inevitably perish.

4. Consider that if ring processing of aspen is executed poor, then the young growth on roots can become very dense and abundant. In this case the tree is recommended to cut off at the level of one meter and to process herbicides.

5. On cut of aspen make drill of large diameter several openings, trying to have them not on the center of trunk, and at the edges, is closer to bark. It to allow active agent together with juice it is better to get to root system.

6. Enter in advance prepared herbicidal solution into the made openings, close polyethylene film and leave approximately for week. Then repeat processing, having entered new portion of medicine. If after ten days the young growth begins to die off, it is possible to root out the tree remains, having at the same time exempted the soil from root system. If the procedure of processing is carried out qualitatively, then have overgrown aspens in this place will not appear any more.
