Inclusion of a weedkiller product does not indicate a recommendation or endorsement by the RHS. Glyphosate is not active through the soil and there is therefore no risk garden plants will absorb it through their roots. Used with care, glyphosate is safe to use around the base of non-suckering woody plants, as long as the bark is woody, brown and mature. When using glyphosate take care to avoid leaves and other green parts of all garden plants as it is not selective in action. Ensure you follow the directions on the packaging of weedkillers.In rough grassland, where glyphosate would kill the grass, use the selective weedkiller Vitax SBK Brushwood Killer which contains triclopyr. Two or three treatments may be needed.Check again in early spring and fork out any surviving roots.A second application may be necessary in September.Neglected areas can be cleared of established nettles by spraying them with a glyphosate-based weedkiller (such as Roundup Ultra or Doff Weedout Extra Tough Weedkiller) which should be applied as a spray in June, shortly before they flower.Nettles cannot withstand repeated mowing.However, annual nettles can be very numerous in cultivated soils Perennial nettles are unlikely to be a persistent problem in regularly cultivated areas, except perhaps where there is a residue of seeds in the soil, or the area is adjacent to neglected land.Young seedlings can be destroyed by hoeing.Digging up the plants can be done at any time of year.Remove as many of the creeping stems as possible as any piece with a node is capable of producing a new plant.In light soils, or where there are isolated clumps, digging out will be effective.It is important to prevent stinging nettles, especially the annual nettles, seeding by cutting down plants in mid-summer, or earlier.With no one to call his own he just decides to put an end to it all. Digging up the plants can be done at any time of year. Overview 19-year-old Jamie just wants someone to love. The best time to apply weedkillers to nettles is when they are in vigorous growth, but have not yet flowered. If chemical controls are used, they should be used only in a minimal and highly targeted manner. The RHS believes that avoiding pests, diseases and weeds by good practice in cultivation methods, cultivar selection, garden hygiene and encouraging or introducing natural enemies, should be the first line of control.
