Manual c<strong>on</strong>trol.<br />

For small scale infestati<strong>on</strong>s (under 10m2), hand remove (placing any seed in bags for disposal in<br />

rubbish) or cut and paint plants with a registered herbicide. Follow up c<strong>on</strong>trol is very important due <str<strong>on</strong>g>to</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />

large num<str<strong>on</strong>g>be</str<strong>on</strong>g>rs <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> seeds the plant produces. In sensitive vegetati<strong>on</strong> areas, <strong>on</strong>ly use manual c<strong>on</strong>trol<br />

methods.<br />

Herbicide c<strong>on</strong>trol.<br />

Spray large infestati<strong>on</strong>s with a registered herbicide in spring or during flowering <str<strong>on</strong>g>be</str<strong>on</strong>g>fore seeds are<br />

produced. For mature infestati<strong>on</strong>s, slash as close <str<strong>on</strong>g>to</str<strong>on</strong>g> the ground as possible, if they are not actively<br />

growing and are not in leaf, then spray regrowth when at least 30cm high.<br />
