Shrub roots?

spray them with weed-b-gone and they will eventually die out! spray the stump too if ur trying to kill the whole tree or shrub!

If your shrubs were big, it may take alot of weed killer and bug spray to kill them. Not to mention time, do you want to plant in that space any time soon, if your able to do manual labor, the best way is to dig the up, you'll save your self some money to and have a god work out at the same time, not to mention, you want have to come in contact with alot of chemicals. If you can't do it, find some one and pay them to do it. Good Luck to ya!!!!!!!!!!!!

keep pulling them out is the best way but work intensive. You can cut into the dirt and put a chain around them and yank them out with a truck-or backho. If you keep cutting the new growth as it begins to grow, the plant will eventually die and so will the roots.

You can also use chemicals that kill the roots such as round-up and brush-be-gone.

I prefer the top methods!!!

If it is not necessary to remove them, I would just let them rot. If you need to remove them, the fastest way is to pull out the shovel and start digging and pulling.

weed kill and bug spray is a great solution i tried it and it worked like magic
