How to kill a tree

[SteelCity1981]

wonder how much roundup you would need to kill a tree like that lol

[TradieTrev]

@SteelCity1981 about 1ltr every few days until the leaves go brown ;)

[SteelCity1981]

@TradieTrev that would cost some money lol.

[dirtdiver5050]

you can also dig a hole next to the tree and dump some system saver salt in the hole. bury and wait. the salt kills the tree. Great for neighbours who wont trim the tree when its touching your house.

i have an old bass tree and the roots just demolish everything 

[Dethnus]

Hurr, its funny how these morons ignore the fact that he stated that his house would be fucked hadn't he killed it.

Stupid treehuggerfags

[TradieTrev]

@Dethnus LOL

[neonv103]

what kind of drill bit did you use? where can i get these chemicals in the states?

[Corkoth55]

lolololol Diet Rite is shitty soda in America

[mybestkoi]

cool! where can i get the Diet Rite?

[vitko8]

What that tree ever done to you...

[NECROLORDZ]

@vitko8 The inminent destruction of the foundations of his house, maybe?

[leokimvideo]

i had to do this to a crazy vine which took over two trees and a fence, it was knocked out in just under 2 weeks

[zacthebold]

why don't you just cut the tree down? then you don't have a rotting hull standing there for years.

[rexman92]

@zacthebold my tree problem got cut down yet it got more by its remaines (saplings grew in its place)

[dzekins]

i actually felt sad for that tree

[moonrice555]

@TheAluminiumklorid Ok, but I wouldn't even know where to look for hydrochloric acid. Wally-world?

[moonrice555]

Ah, for christ's sake---I'm glad I read the description. I drilled the holes already and was going to buy some Diet Rite today. Lord, Jesus.

[Scouser1917]

@moonrice555 you should apply chemicals immediately after drilling, or the clever tree will seal up the exposed surface.

[moonrice555]

@Scouser1917 Right---but WHAT chemicals? He doesn't tell in the vid, he just says "poison". I called Lowe's and asked if they had anything to kill a tree they didn't have anything.

[TradieTrev]

@moonrice555 if you introduce any chemical that destroys a tree's nutrients it will die. I used everything from Glyphosate (present as Potassium salt) to a fuel litres of petrol. When dosed regularly (3 times a week) you will start to see the tree die

[moonrice555]

@TradieTrev Thank you. I have some trees that are tearing our property apart.

[TradieTrev]

@buttsecksist It was bloody cold and the rest I'll leave to people imaginations ;)

[gsp160]

why u all telling him what he already knows? if u seek proper council approval which its plain to see he has u can kill a tree. plus its a rural area so normal council rules do not apply. the chances are this guy got the local mayor around for a beer to discuss the tree and agreed with a hand shake. good luck with yr aussie oasis matey

[TradieTrev]

@gsp160 Bloody oath! I had a few frosties with him, the tree is well and truly dead now... in fact I probably should cut the bastard down and make another video of it to piss off the tree huggers

[gsp160]

@TradieTrev cheers mate,we own property down nsw south coast lake conjola and mollymook its a beautiful life. the old man bought back in the early 60s for pound never ever sell.gonna kit home one place cause it still original and fallin apart. had that huge storm months ago the old chain saw got a work out. love all ya work ya spagetti vid made me spit my beer all over the place farkin funny..u and fat bastard love ya work cheers

[arborforestry]

@TradieTrev

Take a machete, (if they ain't banned in your pussified country) make 3" cuts in said tree leaving 1-2" between cuts and then pour in your Glyphosate.

I kill 400+trees a day with that method, though I do use a squirt bottle.

[TradieTrev]

@arborforestry Sounds like a easier method, I'll take your word on it's success.

Using a machete is something very similar to what our farmers (ring-barking). Thanks for the comment

[zuke7000]

nice. reminds me of TREEKILLERBOOKSTORE site.

[Wallabytrack]

I am a bit of a tree hugger, I had to drop nine around the house, this year,there is another 600 or so left,Yeah i felt bad about it,I dont burn timber My place is all electric with a backup 5kva Genset, I mulched and gave the timber to the needy for winter,state forrest at the back and front, of the place so there is no shortage of tree's, Council is very wary about telling property owners, in case there is a fire,Shame they couldn't give there Dickhead Grader driver a refresher course.

[79Testo]

Buddy, there is video taped evidence of you killing this tree....remove the video....do what you do on the quiet.

[MrEarthmover]

I just killed three trees my self out the front of my house so I can park the truck further off the road. I peeled the bark back and then drilled the trunk and exposed roots, filled the with diet rite and glued the bark back down. The council is cutting them down now ;-)

[MrStripyHead]

what were you doing? im confused

[TradieTrev]

@MrStripyHead the title not enough? I'll re-write the description just for you

[MrStripyHead]

@MrStripyHead why were you killing that tree for? its a beautiful big tree! Why would you want to kill it?

[TradieTrev]

@MrStripyHead it is a beautiful tree, unfortunately it's a fig tree (about 18yrs old) and will most likely stuff the foundations of the house.

[MrStripyHead]

@TradieTrev when the council sees that dead tree, you might be up for a hefty fine... ouch!

[TradieTrev]

@MrStripyHead the local council wouldn't frown upon it as I am on rural land... the laws are quite different as opposed to your typical suburban block. Thanks for your concern; I wouldn't have posted this video unless I've followed all local regulations and guidelines.

[BuschTukkerMan]

hey cool mate i really enjoyed watching it:)

haha your bad haah , thumps up for the video!

[TradieTrev]

@BuschTukkerMan sorry busch, but thanks for watching

[kegs666]

[01davethecouchguy]
