How do you kill vine weed?

Answer 1

Clipping the vines at the ground level, cutting away as much of the above-ground parts as possible, digging up the severed roots, solarizing any remaining parts with weighted-down black plastic sheeting, and using home-made or store-bought weed-killers are ways to kill vine weeds. It is important to don personal protective equipment since there may be irritating bristles, hairs, spines or thorns. The edible parts may be removed for feeding livestock and mixing in with salad, sandwich and soup ingredients as long as they are bristle, hair, pesticide, spine and thorn-free.
