Goats absolutely love the taste of Kudzu and will eat it before they will eat almost anything else. There are a few companies that will rent out goat herds to come in and eat your kudzu. I don't know the name of any of those companies, so I can't help you there. Goats are much more effective at this than cows because goats actually pull out roots, while cows are careful to leave the roots intact so that their food will grow back later. If you can find some way to get even one or two goats onto your property your kudzu will start dissappearing very quickly.

How To Kill Kudzu
2016-10-04 08:21:03 · answer #3 · answered by ? 4 · 0⤊ 0⤋
Kudzu must be actively growing. Using Roundup (41%) at a rate of 2 oz per gal of water should do the job. Spray until material wets and drips from leaves
Good luck.

Go to Home Depot or Lowes they make a special Round-UP or the like just for Kudzu

A true southern problem that pesky kudzu. Short of some kind of thermonuclear device I don't know. Its root system is extensive.
I don't know if you can eliminate it but you may be able to check its progress or even slow it down by letting cattle or goats graze on it.

Oh it's possible. But not easy. You need a machetti and a sickel bar type mower. You cant use a brush hog cause the vines will wind up on it and render it useless.
If you can, burn the cuttings. If you have to haul them away, better rent a BIG truck.

Move far far away. Now seriously spray with a vegetation chemical when the vine is growing ,keep spraying for a couple of years and you might kill it. p.s. I did move from where it was growing.

use gasoline but dont light it unless you want to. the gas will kill it all, down side is nothing will grow there for a while, about 2-3 months. it will even kill the deep roots. i had a similar prob with bamboo
