I have just been pulling this up from my horses' field and hay field..grrr. However, having googled, it seems that pulling it is pointless and that it needs repeated spraying with glyphosphate. Just wondered whether anyone has had experience of clearing this weed and how long it took? Also curious as to whether anyone has had experience of mares tail poisoning? Does it need a lot of the stuff to do damage and does it have a cumulative effect like ragwort? Also just a warning, there seems to be a LOT of woody nightshade about this year, so please be vigilant as this is poisonous to livestock including horses.
