   How do I get rid of giant hogweed?

   • Important: Never mow when plants are flowering, as it can spread the seeds and worsen the infestation. Herbicides containing glyphosate or triclopyr can be helpful in eradicating giant hogweed. I apply these chemicals directly to the foliage or cut stems, ensuring it penetrates the plant’s system to prevent regrowth.
