Some guys from stoneville have been coming out to my fil place for about 5 years testing various herbicides on kudzu. There is an area of about 2 acres that they sprayed 2 years ago that still has no kudzu growing on it. Its expensive at $100/quart but worth it if it can controll the kudzu. I found this information below I think i will go ahead and spray it in some spots and see what happens.
