Bl@@dy creeping roses - Best way to kill them off anyone ?

[BBH]

As title really, they are all over my wooded copse and I want to get rid of them but they are proving quite robust and come back year on year.

Any ideas please.

For a small fee, I can smuggle you 7 bloody goats of various sizes and aggressiveness. They eat anything, including tarmac if the number of times they squeeze out of their field to wander up and down the lanes and terrify innocent hackers is anything to go by lol!

LOL theyd' eat the roses and just about everything else teeth height

but thanks for the offer . Its just aswell its the thought that counts

Cut them back, let them reshoot and then spray them with something like 'Broadshot, Roundup (generic glycogen) or Garlon' it will take more than one hit but if you keep cutting back the regrowth and spraying you will eventually exhaust and kill the root system. Ring an agronomist for advice.

Thankyou, will try the Roundup and see what happens.
