Whats the best way to get rid of Bind Weed?
Question:My back garden has been taken over by bind weed which grows at a phnenmonal rate. Has anyone got any suggestions on how to get rid of it once and for all?
Answers:
Weedkillers : - A systemic herbicide like Glyphosate is the best option. When it's growing through other plants untangle as much as possible, lay on a plastic sheet or drape it over some pea sticks before treating. After digging up as much as possible, train any regrowth up a cane to allow enough leaf area to develop for treatment. Crushing can help the uptake of the herbicide. One method of application is to use a sponge or a woolen glove placed over a rubber one to soak up the herbicide then clutch the plant as it grows up the support.

Only one way to do that...
Get down there in dirt, and dig up every scrap of its roots! Good luck!
Try bribing some friends over with pizza and beer and make a party of it.
