Message: [QUOTE="Meadowlark, post: 211762, member: 7117"] Interesting use of the diesel and molasses combo. Makes sense. I'll use that in the future when I have a stump problem. Salt by itself will not kill the CM stump but with diesel it is very effective. On CM sprouts, I prefer to just mow them regularly in the lawn but in areas where I can't get to mow and where the residual doesn't matter, I'll use some cattle salt. I figure it costs about a quarter to treat a CM sprout with cattle salt and its gone within 6 weeks. CM's are really tough, persistent...don't know if they are tougher than mesquite but I'd be willing to bet they are more persistent in the soil. Fortunately they don't seem to invade the fields like mesquite. [/QUOTE]
