Ferti-lome Brush Killer Stump Killer is recommended for the control of unwanted woody plants, vines and broadleaf weeds around homes, cabins, fences, walkways, and other non-crop areas.
Stump Treatment
To kill Stumps and prevent sprouting, apply the undiluted product with a paint brush or backpack sprayer to completely cover the freshly cut surface. Do not reuse paint brush. Wrap in several layers of newspaper and discard in trash.
Vine Control
When treating Vines such as Poison Oak, Poison Ivy, etc. that grow on or around desirable Plants, do not allow spray to contact desirable vegetation. Cut the Vine first and treat as directed for Stump treatment.
Foliage Spray
Using a hose-end or tank sprayer, mix 8 to 16 tablespoons (4 to 8 fl. oz.) in enough water to make one gallon mixed spray. For mature or hard-to-control Plants (such as Ash, Blackgum, Choke Cherry, Elm, Maple, Oak, Pine, or Winged Elm), or during drough conditions, use the highest rate of application indicated. Resprouting may occur in the year following treatment when lower rates are used. The addition of a surfactant (spreader/sticker) enhances herbicidal action and improved distribution of the spray on hard-to-wet Plant surfaces. Apply at the rate of one gallon mixed spray to approximately 500 sq. ft. of area. Coverage may vary depending on the amount of foliage to be treated. Using coarse spray pattern and low pressure, apply as thorough foliage spray to wet all leaves.

Works Great!

We bought an old house that had been neglected. It had an 80 foot chain link fence completely filled with 7 ft tall trees and hundreds of saplings. We cut them all off and applied the Fertilome Brush Killer to each fresh stump as we went along and we killed every single one of those suckers!

KILLS BAMBOO
By Anonymous on 06/19/2013
I planted bamboo the neighbor complained. The town passed an ordinance REMOVE IT OR BE FINED. It was a beautiful screen that took 5 years to grow to 40ft. I was told about this product from Amber a sales rep on this site. I bought a case. Each stalk must be chopped at ground level with a saw-zall and the product must be injected in within 7 seconds with a large syringe. Excellent Result. You have to keep after it the first season & after every rain. IT REALLY WORKS. I am down to 1 or 2 tiny weak shoots after it rains. Follow these directions. Right after the BAMBOO is chopped it withdraws its fluid to the root When you replace the fluid with the stump killer the root dies. ALSO it has not leached to other plants in the yard. My daylilies are blooming fine. I would start with 2 cases as I am now on my 2nd. I will always want a bottle around because BAMBOO is a challenge. IT IS A BATTLE YOU CAN WIN!

Great Product
By Gloria on 10/02/2012
I live in The Florida Keys and many of us have gravel instead of grass for our yards. There are these annoying strangler vines that pop up in the gravel and are nearly impossible to get rid of......until now. I tried ALL the chemicals fro Home Depot, Wal-Mart, Kmart and our local hardwares.....none touch them. This product really works. It seemed to take longer than I expected but 3 weeks later they are GONE.......and I mean GONE!!! I'll re order soon so I have it on hand incase I missed some.

Buckthorn buster
By J on 11/28/2013
In my experience, this is the only product I have tried that is effective against buckthorn. Round-Up just lets it come back, mutated and angry. Unfortunately, UPS damaged the product, causing a delivery delay, but the product is good.

Can this be used to kill willow stumps on pond dam and not contaminate the water? Massive root system goes out in water remain after cutting trees in the fall. Stumps are less than 4 inches in diameter.
Killing stumps/trees which have roots that run into water areas can be tricky. Most stump killer products do not address aquatic life safety from indirect applications that could impact them, so we couldn't say for certain if applying just to the fresh cut of the stump, if the Fertilome Brush and Stump Killer would have a negative impact. You can always contact the manufacturer directly to see if they have any specific use instructions they would suggest for that application. You can reach VPG at 888-583-5296, An alternative option to try would be using aquatic plant killing products like Roundup Aquatic or Hi Yield 2,4D which may take multiple treatments, but are safe for aquatic life whether the product gets into the water directly or indirectly.
The mix rate for Ferti-lome Brush Killer and Stump Killer will depend on what and where you are treating.
The label suggests the following treatments: Applying as a foliage spray: 8 - 16 tbsp. per gallon of water per 500 sq. ft. For Stump Treatment: Apply undiluted product with a paint brush to completely cover the fresh cut surface and for Vine Control, cut the vine first and treat as directed for stump treatment

Can I cut and squirt after frost.?
Fertilome Brush Killer should not be applied directly to water. We would recommend using the product at least 3 feet away so that it does not get into the water.

not want contamination there. Why don't you sell small refillable containers with sponge applicator tops like the old white shoe polish?
When applying Ferti-lome Brush Killer and Stump Killer as a foliar spray, you will use 4-8 oz in 1 gallon of water at a rate of 1 gallon of solution per 500 square feet, being sure to wet all leaves thoroughly.

I plan to remove many laurel cherry tree seedlings; most are 1/2 inch or less in diameter. If I lop the stem a couple of inches above the ground and apply a squirt of Fertilome B/S killer now, will the plant be killed, or should I wait a month or two? Thanks, Fred
You can use a product like the Fertilome Brush Killer and Stump Killer as either a foliar spray or a cut stump treatment. For a stump treatment, you would cut the stumps and apply the product undiluted directly to the fresh cuts. It may be difficult to do a cut stump treatment on very small seedlings, so you can wait until the seedlings have some leaves and are actively growing. At that point, you could do a foliar spray by using 4-8 oz in 1 gallon of water at a rate of 1 gallon of solution per 500 square feet, being sure to wet all leaves thoroughly.

I cut down a 2' round oak tree and then brushed it with Ferti-lome to kill it as directed by the label. A week later is was sending up suckers so my dad and the arborist just said to drill a bunch of holes and pour the whole bottle into the stump, so I did so. Two months later a small oak tree about 8 feet away died and I had it removed, I already unfortunately see signs of browning leaves on a few branches of a big beautiful oak tree about 10' away from the original stump. I'm sick about it and don't know what to do! I'm so sad I'm going to lose that bigger oak tree, it would be horrible. I'm 2 months out from the original application to the original stump. Any advice on how to help that bigger oak recover from this toxic shock would be appreciated. Not sure if I can at this point or if it's just a hope and pray situation and I'm never using herbicides again!

When applied by brushing onto freshly cut stumps.
For Autumn Olive, it is recommended that after cutting large bushes, it is best to immediately apply a glyphosate herbicide or Fertilome Brush Killer. If new shoots appear later, spray them to kill them. The most successful method is to remove the autumn olive bush, roots and all.
Tordon RTU Herbicide is labeled to treat Ailanthus stumps. For stump treatment, it is recommended to spray or paint the cut surfaces of freshly cut stumps and stubs with undiluted Tordon RTU. Please follow all label instructions.
