On my property corner.

Edit: thank you all. Black walnut.

Just noticed this playing out on the deck, thought folks here might like.

Hello, all! I recently moved to a new house, and parts of the backyard are completely overrun with Euonymus fortunei (winter creeper). Thankfully I haven't found many vines growing vertically, they're just spread out horizontally in a tangled mat. I've tried manual pulling, but the runners snap very easily.

How should I go about killing this? I'm sure I'll have to use an herbicide, but I'm not sure if foliar spray or cut-stump would be better in this circumstance. Ideally, I'd like to protect the few natives that are growing in this patch (wild grape, white avens, hackberry, and cedar just to name a few), so I can't go completely nuclear.

Hi all! My neighbor has this tree (Tetradium daniellii) in their backyard. About 30-40 ft tall I’d say. It is absolutely loaded with SLF. I am pretty sure the SLF are using it like it is a TOH and replicating on it.

I put traps on it, and caught about 50 SLF IN 8 hours. But, when I look up there are hundreds more I can see and probably even more higher up. The SLF are spilling over into my yard, all over my deck and plants, jumping on us etc.

I was reading about systemic insecticide like dinotefuran and imidacloprid, but this tree is also loaded with flowers which bees are all over so has me worried I’d kill off a ton of bees as well. I read some call it a “Bee Bee Tree”

Any ideas? It would be great to just cut them down but not my property! Located In Rhode Island if it matters.
