Do you have info on the chemical formulas for treating prickly pear? I have plenty of them here in NM to get rid of.

I use my bucket with tooth bar to get rid of my staghorn cholla. Works well. But the staghorn is nowhere near as mean as your jumping (chain-fruit cholla) in central AZ.

I don't know about the Portland area, but in southern Oregon I am raising a bumper crop of poison oak this year. We also have wild blackberrys in abundance. The thorns aren't as long as prickly pear, but they are a lot faster-growing, and being on vines makes them more mobile.

I have limited experience with prickley pear, but would much rather deal with it than poison oak. Just wait 'til you have to go out in the woods, and you will discover what body part it transfers to from your hands.

Oh ya, I know ALL about teh poison oak. I pretty much have a permanent case of it since we bought this place. Makes clearing brush a religious experience.

Type in Brushbusters in your search engine. Their recommended mixes for Surmount and Tordon 22k are posted.

Both chemicals require an applicator's license. Tordon 22k required diesel, the Surmount does not.

I don't know what kind of trees you have there--both these chemicals are deadly to the live oaks down here in Texas. I thought I had researched it well--I recommend consulting your county extension agent before using it. We thought we were being really careful, but still burned some trees which I will not know till next year if they survive. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif
