I’d suggest marking out an area with lots of first-year plants, then digging in the fall after a good hard freeze and thaw. Scratch and sniff each root as you dig them up, sometimes other plants like to hide amongst the parsnips that have the same shape and color of taproot. There’s no mistaking that banana smell, though.
And wear gloves, just in case some of the leaves are still kicking!
He’s out mowing with the big mower on front of the skid steer. He’s working on the sides of the driveway and then the paths we have for riding/walking trails.
I can guarantee that he’s mowing down ANY Wild Parsnip he sees, LOL!
I’ll tell him about the procedure when he gets back in. He just might be interested in that. That, and his ‘Nettle Tea’ which gives me hives just thinking about it! ;)
