Buckthorn Removal Techniques & The Baggie

Removing Buckthorn the Easy Way: 

The goal is to eradicate buckthorn plants and remove and control buckthorn plants without the use of chemicals or uprooting and disturbing ground soil with a buckthorn puller or broom which would allow more buckthorn seeds to germinate.

Our Buckthorn Baggie can be used anytime of the year for buckthorn removal. This bag can be used on other invasive plants as well that do not use root suckers to re-sprout.  Hillsides are a very common place to use the Buckthorn Baggie to help stop any erosion that would happen if the plants roots are removed.  Killing buckthorn has never been so easy without the use of chemicals. Many groups of Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts have found that by not using chemicals, it allows troops to do total buckthorn removal from start to finish.  How to kill buckthorn without chemicals has arrived.  Our Buckthorn Baggies have also been featured in newspapers across the country, highlighting the first chemical free way to safely and effectively kill buckthorn.

Testimonials

Janice Siska-Hjelmgren Racine WI


The regular size is working well on our regular sized buckthorn!  The baggies have stayed on all winter, there is no sprouting around them, and they are still in good condition.  Having bludgeoned, poisoned, and watched a backhoe buckthorn battle with, and lose, to buckthorn over the years, I really appreciate the simplicity, efficiency, and healthful method of eradicating buckthorn with the buckthorn baggies!!!
