[yoteslayer]

I want to go on a mission in Feb and March to kill as much bush honey suckle and autumn olive at a farm that is totally overrun with it.

If I used a 2 gallon sprayer with 50% gly/ 50% water . Where do I buy the dye to add with it so I can see the stumps I've treated? How much to a I add to a 2 gallon sprayer?


Thanks all!

I have used windshield washer fluid in my mix. Also aids in freezing. You might use it in place of the water.

The dye Treespud recommends is what I use. You can buy at Rural King or Tractor Supply. Wear rubber gloves or you will have stained hands for a week. I drip a very small amount into sprayer. Maybe half an ounce.

For cut stump treatments I just use food coloring from the grocery store.

I use Bullseye at a rate of 1-2oz per gallon and get enough color for a foliar application and plenty for a cut-stump application.
