muledeerarea33? Report post Posted June 14, 2015 Trying to kill this off my land or atleast keep it at bay once or twice a year. I don't wanna kill the trees or natural grass in the process. What is it and how do I kill it? The lighter green that's right of the yuca? The darker "dusty" green on to the left I believe is a type of sage brush.

muledeerarea33? Report post Posted June 15, 2015 Nothing a little manual labor can't fix. agree with that 100% problem is I'm not sure how deep the roots are, if they're in the leach field already then the ripping and pulling could damage things. I've cut them ground level the last few years and they come back Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
