How can I get rid of the Sumach suckers growing in my lawn?
The Sumach (Rhus typhina) is notorious for producing suckers, Start by chopping through the roots to separate the suckers from the parent plant. Ccut the stems down to ground level, when the new growth is about 30 cm high, treat with SBK Brushwood Killer (Vitax). It is absorbed by the new leaves and kills their roots.
