<br /> <br />a BIG problem <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />Why? Buckthorn is an invasive species that devastates our native plant species <br />and decimates our natural forests. <br /> <br />How is it spread? In a word, quickly. Each berry puts outfourseeds. <br />When wildlife eats the berries they act as a laxative spreading seeds throughout <br />the area. These seeds stay in the soil for up to 6 years germinating randomly <br />and at will. <br /> <br />How do you manage it? Much like dandelions, you can never <br />eliminate the problem, you can only get it under control and then manage it. <br />The best time to remove it is in the fall or early winter before a major snowfall. <br />The most successful eradication method is a complete removal including cutting <br />and removing plant material and chemically treating stumps. This process <br />needs to be repeated for a minimum of three years to be successful (although 6 <br />is preferred). Once it is under control management is pretty simple, if you know <br />what you are doing. An unskilled tree company can do more harm than good <br />making the process much more difficult. <br /> <br />What are my options? Werealizeeachcityhasuniqueneedsand <br />corresponding budgets.
