Anyone deal with spicebush? I have a ton of it and its in the areas ive opened the canopy over the last 5 years. Is it garbage? Any benefit? How do you kill it?
I have lots of it too. Mostly in canopy openings and edges. Doesn't seem to be a preferred browse species but the birds do like it. It is native for me and I have no issues with having it around. I would think a foliar spray right about now would be hard on it if you wanted to kill it. Lots of worse stuff to have in my neck of the woods so I welcome it.

I have areas with lots of spicebush. It is a native plant. I am however, working to control honeysuckle and autumn olive which are invasive and had taken over areas as a monoculture. Nothing else would grow there and I didn't see any browse on them.

We have a healthy population of spice bush. It doesn’t offer much for deer (fast growing cover) but it doesn’t seem to bother anything either. In one location on our place it’s a strong contender for best food plot screen.
