specific herbicide application ideas

[john volkman]

im looking for any ideas on applying a herbicide by hand without using a spray method, i want ot target some invasives in my pollinator planting without harming the desirable plants, I would need ot do this by walking thru the planting and touching each invasive plant somehow. Is there something out there that one can "blot" ir touch a plant with and have herbicide applied?

Sometimes simple is the best approach

Put on a latest glove then a cotton glove over it. Dip your hand in herbicide and get after it.

The hand held weed wipe works great for things like this I bought a couple of them and use 50/50 mix of glysophate and water on most things with them. They work great on small clumps of Johnson grass
