You know it will eat your house and everyone in it. Keep up the good fight and figure out a way to supply a butcher with fodder for venison sausage.

Thirty years is a long time to fight anything. Is there possibly a local organization that could assist you. I'm in quite a battle with it right now. I do late fall foliar spraying and basal treatment for larger plants. I really, really dislike it, but you have to admire its tenacity and adaptability.

When I say I'm fighting buckthorn, I mean I rid my yard of the mature ones, but the seeds sprout everywhere! Constantly pulling seedlings all these years when maybe I should just let them grown instead of spending $$$$ at the nursery!
