how to clear thorn bushes
weeds is a naughty word to gardeners
there are many different kinds of weeds
and some of the most hated varieties
have thorns that can cause injuries to
you your family and your pets these
thorn bushes grow quickly and are
notoriously hard to kill one thing every
species of thorny weed has in common is
vigor successfully removing a thorn bush
takes persistence vigilance and some
boiling water once you have removed
everything that is visible you must kill
the roots then you need to continue your
assault until the weed does not come
back things you'll need large knife lawn
grade garbage bags large cooking pot
water stove heavy leather work gloves
safety glasses grasp the stalk of the
thorn bush with your gloved hand cut
through the stalk of the plant with a
large knife trim the thorn bush down a
foot at a time being careful not to
leave any of the greenery behind throw
each piece into a heavy long grade trash
bag
double the trash bag for extra
protection push the point of the knife
blade into the ground and pry up the
rest of the stalk of the thorn bush dig
out all of the plant that you can find
and discard it in your double trash bag
stabbed the knife repeatedly into the
ground all around the area to chop up
the remaining roots continue stabbing
the knife into the ground until you have
loosened an area of soil on a three-foot
circumference around the site of the
original bush fill a large pot with tap
water place the pot on a stove and heat
it until the water is boiling vigorously
carry the boiling water to the area and
pour it onto the loosened soil to kill
the roots
keep a close eye on the area over the
next month cut out new growth as soon as
it appears chop up the roots and pour
boiling water on the area as many times
as necessary to kill the plant
