Bonide2746 Stump & Vine Killer Concentrate, 8 oz Stumps and Vines Without harming Turf. Contains Brush Easy Application. Kills Oak, Poison Ivy and More, 1

We have a large garden area surrounding a 2-level patio that had been let go for over 10 years when my elderly mother lived with us. Last year, we decided to clean it up but it was so overgrown with weeds, honeysuckle bushes and trees that had grown from fallen seeds, the task was insurmountable for 2 people in their late 70's. So, we hired a landscaping company to clean it up and to remove all of the unwanted bushes and trees. $7500 later, the garden area did look nicer even if they had removed some of the trees we wanted to keep and cut back and trampled on most of the hostas, brunnera, and other perennials.This year the weeds came back with a vengeance. The wild raspberries, honeysuckle bushes, and trees had been only cut back to stumps. So, they were all growing back. Since the raspberry bushes are shallow rooted, they were easy enough for me to dig out. While I removed weeds a section at a time and transplanted some of the perennials as needed, my husband dug out some of the smaller stumps, but some were just to large to remove with a shovel and a pick..I found out about Bonide stump remover on a YouTube video and decided to try it on some of the larger stumps. This stuff really does work!! Using the brush applicator it doesn't seem like you are using enough, but you don't need much to kill a stump. We had a grapevine climbing a walnut tree that had a 3" diameter stem attached the tree and growing at least 50' into the tree. I pulled it away from the tree and cut it off with a saw at ground level. Then I applied Bonide Stump & Vine Killer to the stump. So far, this vine has not regrown or sent out new shoots. Still haven't figured out how to get the dead vine out of the tree, though. I have also stopped new growth on a walnut tree stump and a few honeysuckle bushes. Fortunately, the landscaper left a 2"-3" stump in most cases, so I cut off the top 1"-2" and apply Bonide to the fresh cut. This is important as the cut needs to be fresh for the stump killer to be absorbed by the stump to kill the roots.So far this stump and vine killer seems to be working and has help quite a bit in the cleanup of our garden area. I would recommend this product, but make sure you apply it to a fresh cut. I have added a couple of pictures of the patio garden and a couple other areas after cleanup to give you an idea of the size of this project.UPDATE 11/12/24:It has been over 3 months since I treated a number of bush and tree stumps in addition to a few huge vines that were growing up our trees. At this point, I have seen no new growth on any of the stumps and vines that I treated with this Stump & Vine killer. This stuff really does work.UPDATE 7/28/25:This year I continued with the cleanup around our patio and around the house. We had let the landscape go for a number of years and in that time huge grape vines, wild raspberries, honeysuckle bushes, and quite a few unwanted trees had planted themselves and grown quite large.This year none of the trees, bushes, and vines that had been cut and treated with Bonide Stump and Vine killer had grown back. To continue the cleanup this year, I tackled a large area in the front of the house with 3 large evergreen trees that had been overrun with weeds, wild raspberries, and grape vines grown 20 feet into the trees as well as unwanted 6-7 foot honeysuckle bushes and box elder trees that had planted themselves.One of the grape vines had more of a trunk than a stem with multiple side growths that went everywhere. I used a lopper to remove the stem growth and pulled the vines out of the surrounding trees and bushes. I used a trowel to remove the soil from around the base of the main trunk, and used a hand chain saw to cut this trunk below ground level. Then I coated the fresh cut with Bonide Stump and Vine killer. I did basically the same to remove 4 box elder trees, 3 honeysuckle bushes, a black cherry tree, and buckthorn bush.I am a 78 year old woman, and I am not about to try to dig out the roots of all of the large plants that I removed although I did remove all of the weeds and wild raspberries. This area was about 30' x 7' . Once cleared, I covered all of the ground with mulch to discourage future weed growth. This area now looks so much cleaner and nicer, and I am sure the trees and bushes I treated will not grow back. I have to say I am so happy this area is done.I hope this review was helpful for you.

Worked really well to kill the stump in my front yard and prevent future grow.. its allowed for use in florida which is great.. the stump kept growing new sprouts until inused this and after im almost able to just pull the entire root out by hand!

Pretty good results but not permanent. The seudo bleeding heart is still popping up so the product is only good for killing the visible sprouts. Other than that it takes about 10 days to really kill. The rhizoma is proving to be tough to get rid of.

Purchased a house with blackberries coming up everywhere. After digging up roots and killing my back, I went looking for what else is there? This!New Blackberry shoots, stems are thin. I wasn't sure if it was enough of a stem to do the job. Snipped em at soil level and applied. Yes, it has been a game changer.Now I'm trying on bindweed. I'm cutting the bind weed at the soil level. It also has a very thin stem. I guess it doesn't take much of this product cuz it's working.

I received this the same way. The instructions were stuck together and some of the product definitely leaked outI will still try it.

Great for shoot plants that store nutrients and keep regenerating. I had some that grew too quick to keep up with and tried several other poisons that would not work. This is pretty strong stuff but it started killing off those stubborn things pretty quick and got down in the roots and finally killed them off for good. Ordering more for a few more that are cropping up.

This product works well for killing the stumps of bushes and vines. My landscape gets out of control with many little trees and bushes coming up where I don't want them..... especially in the middle of my shrubs.I have used other products in the past that have either not killed what I wanted to kill, or they have killed everything,So far, most of the things I have used this on have stayed dead, and the desirable plants have survived.I do have an issue with the shape of the bottle. Sometimes I need to set the bottle down so I can use both of my hands to get through the bushes to the spot I want to treat. The bottle is tall and flat and easy to tip over. so far this has not caused me to lose any of my landscape plants but I have had to stop and make a trip to the store to buy more.

Works great! Will also kill suckers that are directly attached to stump. Will not kill suckers off the stump. Took about 3 days to notice it dying. Use on freshly cut stump. Let dry completely before allowing pets to the area. Worked on Wisteria and Scrub Oak.
