Weed Alert – Tree of Heaven

September 23, 2024 by Linda SE

Blue Ridge PRISM Recommendations

  • Now is the time to identify and control this invasive tree to maximize herbicide effectiveness and minimize regrowth.
  • Use our guide to identify Tree-of-Heaven (Ailanthus altissima) in the landscape.
  • ==> Hack & Squirt:  Effective, most simple, and least expensive control method for larger trees
  • ==> Foliar Spray:  Most practical use to treat clonal colonies of small trees or in follow-up control
  • *Do not* utilize the Cut Stump method as it will not prevent root suckering. More
