How to get rid of: Spraying with herbicide is often the most efficient method of removing herbaceous weeds but must be done with care and in the right conditions. Spraying must be done in the correct season when the plant is actively growing and should be avoided in windy conditions. This will also use less herbicide.

Appropriate safety equipment should always be used to minimise harm to the operator.
