| Hi! I have 2 bushes I want to kill but cannot remove them. Want to place patio stones in area. How do I kill them without damaging other areas? Thank you |

| Shakristi, if physically it's not possible for you to cut them down to a manageable level and dig them out with a regular garden spade, maybe you could have someone use a chain saw to take them down as close to ground level as possible and then cover the area with a tarp so that no sun penetrates the ground, which hopefully will kill the roots. ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

| You really need to find out what specifically you are dealing with. |

| If you leave the dead underground parts under your patio, they will eventually rot and cause your stones to sink unevenly. Porkpal |
