OH God.. don't do the salt!! I did that and it left a terribl
yellow/white ring around everything in the area.. grass.. weeds.. man.
it looked deliberate. There are a lot of ways to kill the darn thing
Keep bumping the roots with your lawn mower and oops! Don't you se
bug infestation right there that needs spraying?
I killed a couple of my trees/bushes by accidently pouring Muiatic Aci
off the side of my deck. AND it had been diluted with water!! It starte
showing signs of distress aobut two weeks later. I KNEW what I had don
and had to pay for it... you could try that. These tree huggers haven'
a clue what you are going through. I do.. And I am going to do what
can to 'get it' done.. sue me...

Hey Bart, I feel your pain!!! Stop listening to Tim the tree hugging
Liberal, take down the tree that I know is making your life miserable
Just because you wrote in a blog that you want to do it isn't ground
for evidence. That would have to prove it beyond a reasonable doubt
dont be seen and you should be ok.
Hey Tim, mind your own business u sissy!!

I'm with Bart - kill the tree or sue your neighbour. I'm here on the
south coast of Australia and I have THREE of these trees towering down
on me, destroying my property, and I'd like to know how to kill them
too! Damn it I'll walk down to the beach and haul loads of salty
water, boil it up, pour it on, have a pee at the same time, put some
nice salty kelp around the base and then blow really hard, in the hope
they might all topple over on my neighbour's house, and then I'll have
a party and plant a bonsai in their memory. RIP.

Hi,
Bart, we have EXACTLY the same problem with our neighbour and a 70-80ft
Cedar. Same needles, same gutter same roof, same car issue, and worse,
The neighbours tree has a Protection Order, which means just to trim
it, an arbourculturist (sp) and an environmentalist must agree that the
trim would benefit the tree. All for around 500 dollars. (Just for
permission!) then the owner has to pay for any work done. We would
gladly pay for it, but she doesn't see the problem because the
prevailing winds littler our garden with all the droppings. One
difference here is it's a cedar and no pine cones. BUT PLENTY OF
NEEDLES! We have two German Shepherds, and they need to go outside a
couple of times a day, and each time they come in, so do 10-50
needles.
We would not be unhappy if the tree should decide to pass on to the
next life, or be bumped off by a third party hitman.
Cheers
Kal

Sorry m8 but the tree is 70-80ft tall and the "Green bits" are 30-50ft
up the tree. Roundup is a lovely idea, but probably not going to kill
the behemoth of a tree...
