Mojave 70 EG is a professional vegetation management product which should only be used by an experienced applicator, as it can leach to surrounding areas and cause unintended ground sterilization. The general application rate for Mojave 70 EG is 0.5 - 1 lb. per gallon of water, and you should refer to the manufacturer's product label for complete application instructions, and only use as directed.
Because privet is very tough to control, we would suggest cutting the privet and then applying a product with the active ingredient Triclopyr like Fertilome Brush Killer and Stump Killer by brushing the undiluted product onto the freshly cut stumps, which will work to kill the entire root system in 1-6 weeks. You can refer to the manufacturer's product label, and use as directed.
