When I want to kill a tree I spray it with Crossbow you can get it at tractor supply
Trying to find this at the local (Lockport, NY) Tractor Supply. Is this maybe just available in Texas? When I enter Crossbow, the search only provides the weapons.

Ring it? Can you explain, maybe I just haven't had enough coffee yet this morning!

Another name for girdling the tree (removing a section of bark all the way around trunk, thereby not allowing nutrients to flow and tree will die)

EDIT: (I also need more coffee, to slow to type and anothe reply got in there :) )

Search Triclopyr. That is the active ingredient in Crossbow. It is sold under many different brands and is sure to be in a store near you

Thanks for all of the suggestions for removing those trees, with all of the rain we have been getting I will need to do something quick before they start to damage the fences. I have forgotten about trying to plant in that space this year. I plan to just do a few pots in the sunny part of the yard.
