In a local park naturalization project, we have had some success with
cutting Manitoba Maple (box elder) and preventing regrowth, by applying
full strength Roundup to the cut stumps within two minutes.
It has been recommended to me to carry out this procedure only when the
temperature is 24 degrees C. or above, and we have tried to comply.
The same procedure has not succeeded when applied to numerous sprouts
from the root system of a poplar which was cut down a few years ago,
probably because not all the sprouts were cut and treated.
An internet acquaintance in Ireland has told me that he has had success
with petroleum jelly mixed with 10% diesel fuel. I have not tried
this yet.
