ABOUT THE "JUICE" THAT DETERS REGROWTH

For controlling unwanted bush honeysuckle (Lonicera maackii) via cut surface treatments in forests. Tordon is selected for this project because it is shown to be effective and only requires a small dab applied sparingly and directly to to the freshly cut stem. Download Applying_Tordon_RTU.pdf for specific application instructions and illustrations as used by Kansas City Wildlands.

• Paint RING of Tordon within minutes of cutting honeysuckle stalks.
• Treat every cut stalk—the bush will re-emerge with great vigor through any untreated stem.
• Work in teams of three: one cutter, one brush dragger, one Tordon treater.
• To avoid missing any cut plants, the cutter should not move on until seeing that the treater is at work on the just cut plant.

Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing!
