Anyone know how to get rid of bramble bushes for good??

[Ell-enn]

I thought I'd dug all the roots out, but the bloomin things keep sprouting up again. Anyone know anything I can put on them to get rid permanently??

Here we go round the bramble bush

 

Bit of a prickly subject there Ells

get some diesel fuel about a pint, and pour it on the base of the plant when you cut it down it will kill the root but be warned it will also kill off the soil round it

Have you tried putting them on ebay?

might try this other stuff first - comes in a box, they have it at wilko's and i think it is called root kill - it worked for mother in law but you may have to treat more than once as the roots tend to pop up again - just keep at it and treat where you see it -

now if i could just get rid of those blasted red lily beetles i'd be happy.
