can this product kill a large tree

I have not done this, but in principle yes. But you need to drill holes deep into tree to ensure systemic delivery. But I would suggest just cutting it down. A big dead tree is a dangerous tree.

Not as a large tree. We have cut several very large oak trees down, and then when they start to "sprout" after time where it was cut down, we spray that new growth. It takes several times of spraying it over a period of a few months, but . . eventually no more new growth.

Oh, I don't think so -- It has taken out some weed vines, maybe 2-3 feet long, and 1/4 inch in diameter.

Yes, but it will probably take more than one session, although you will see results after the first spray. Also, it will kill what is above ground, but the root will still be viable.

You sometimes can, but 2-4-D or Pramitol will kill woody vines, bushes and trees MUCH better.

I assume that it will. However, it will not kill the roots, it just destroys above ground vegetation, all vegetation. I used it to kill raspberries, a plant that is very hard to kill.

I'm not sure about bamboo, but if you mix it heavy( about 4oz of mix to 1 gallon of water it will kill anything) it kills trees and under brush!

That would depend on the height of the trees. The hand sprayer (at least on mine) would spray a 12-16 foot tree on a still day based on my height (more using s ladder). Definitely would need a respirator though.

I understand that it does. I think they use it around here on ornamental ash trees. It certainly should kill any borer since that insect grub is eating the living part of the bark and that is going to have the chemical just like the leaves do. Also, if you have large trees this insecticide is available at a much lower unit cost if you buy larger amounts. Just Google the actual chemical name of the insecticide. In fact it is used by farmers on some things.

Prob. not Jim as this is a weed killer...the Pines more than likely will have to be cut down and then a stump killer applied :-)

I just sent an answer to your question. This is probable not strong enough to use on a tree. I ordered the systemic Bayer product that was specifically for trees and shrubs.

No, it does not harm trees or lawns. My husband has used this product for many years. It is the only product that works for us.

I use it to kill Chinese Tallow, Honey Locust, and other undesirable trees in wildlife habitat restoration programs. I mix one gallon of Remedy to three gallons of diesel and spray the trunks from the ground up to 10 or 12 inches. Anything with a trunk diameter less than 6" is easily killed. Anything larger may take some follow up spraying.

No, it will not enter the tree if you are just spraying around it at the proper mixture. Thank you

Most likely. From both the product description and my experience, this product kills ALL vegetation.

I have only used tordon to kill stumps of trees we have had to remove. I have never used it in the application you describe. I would be cautious; tordon is unforgiving.

I don't know anything about the tree you mentioned but if this stuff can't kill it then nothing can.

I would doubt it. This kills grass and weeds well although there are some "tough" weeds that require a higher concentration. I've used it to kill weeds in ground cover evergreens where it gets the needs but not the evergreens (they may brown a little for a time). Maybe if you used a much higher concentration than recommended for weeds?

Not sure about trees. It does sterilize the soil. I think it killed my honeysuckle vines
