Does anyone have experience with basal bark treatment with Garlon 4 when there is snow on the ground? The label says basal bark treatment can be done anytime...
We did quite a bit of basal bark treatment with Garlon in the snow in the late 1990s (when there was quite a bit of snow!). It worked fine as long as a...

Hi, I just received this notice and thought it may be a useful tool for many of you. Sorry for double postings. I attached the species covered below the...
I plan to plant prairie in a 30 acre field adjacent to State Hwy 151. About 30-50% of the field has crown vetch that has invaded from the road right of way....
Mike, Crown vetch is difficult to deal with. I agree with your herbicide strategy. Spend enough time to get the vetch area(s) under control before you seed the...

Hi, Has anyone conducted a survey of the general public to determine how they interpret words or phrases related to invasive plants? For example, what do...
I'd be interested in seeing a list of clopyralid(transline)-resistant forbs. I am assuming this is "relative" resistance, not the sort of absolute resistance...

I've seen resistance with milkweeds and mints. "To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts."- Henry David Thoreau Michael Engel U.S. Fish...
Tom, You're right, it's relative resistance. I've seen some of the resistant forbs wilt, turn brown on the leaf margins or show other signs of stress after...

The attached document (circulated in the Wisconsin DNR) discusses conservation language generally. It doesn't address invasives specifically, but does touch...

I hope to be doing some black locust control this year, but have a couple of questions before I get started. One of the clones is very near a marshy area....
Angela, Clopyralid (Transline & Stinger) is not labeled for aquatic or wetland use. It can therefore only be applied to sites with no surface water. It is...
Two purposes for this email. 1) To announce the 25th annual conference. It will be held February 12, 2005 at the MATC Mequon Campus just north of Milwaukee. 2)...

Debbie, I'm behind on email, just saw your question about word choice on trail head signs. I happen to be reading the latest book by George Lakoff, "Don't...
I've been following the exchange about Crown Vetch control and the associated costs. Please keep in mind that IPAW can almost see the not too distant day when...
Probably a good idea to get a handle on costs of invasives. Crown vetch has no positive value. It doesn't actually work as well as grasses to hold soil, which...
One thing everyone needs to do is write a letter to Publishers Clearing House and chastise them for selling it as a "wonderfull groundcover" in their sales...

I have been interested in the economics of restoration and have made a few stabs at getting data. Obviously, $$ per acre is what folks would want, but because...
