How to Get Rid of Mulberries in a Yard

Mulberry weed is an invasive plant species that has its roots in Japan and China. Similar in appearance to a seedling mulberry tree, the mulberry weed grows to a height of about 12 inches, prefers shaded, damp areas and is found in many U.S. locations. Successfully control mulberry with herbicide applied correctly and in proper conditions. Ammonium salt of imazaquin herbicide is safe for most grasses and plants.
