Yearling... With promise
I'm looking for an efficient way to kill a bunch of smaller trees (from saplings to about 6" dia). I want to make several 1 to 3-acre bedding areas for deer on my 47-acre farm. I need to open the canopy up to let the sun hit the ground. I plan to hinge-cut about 1/3 of the trees in each area to add structure and browse. I also want to protect most of the black cherry and oaks that are dotted throughout.
How does the Basal Bark Treatment affect the surrounding areas? I want to be sure that the understory comes in thick. Also what about overspray? Do I need to carefully apply the treatment or can I get overspray on the carpet of dead leaves? Thanks for any input.
