Help Blackberries taking over backyard!

My backyard is a frigging jungle!

The Blackberries are getting six feet high!

What is the best cheap solution?

A Machete ?

Renting some kind of super weed eater?

Christ the neighbors will soon see them coming over the fence

This is a great idea... I chop them down and then throw them over the fence at night.

Sell them to local bakeries for their muffins or some old ladies from a church for their jams.

Really? I figured that it was beyond chemical help. I'll read about Roundup the stuff.

Thanks!


I have acquired the concentrated formula and a 1 Gal pump up sprayer!

Well why not? We already have a goat-herder, what's wrong with adding a mere Blackberry farmer?

Plus you could qualify for some sort of tax break on your property for being a farmer.
