Goats will exceed your expectations as there is literally no altitude they cannot deal with, just Goggle them by yourself: "climbing goats". A second less environmental's choice, would be to give a quick call to the "Cpac" and get a new parking lot just in time for the New Year's celebrations...

Quite possibly because it is owned by monsanto, and likely why there is so much cancer here. Buy a bloody scythe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NamKangMan Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 (edited) Make contact with the Thai owner. Tell him/her you have a friend interested in the buying the land, and your friend has big money. Tell them your friend is very interested, but needs to see the land cleared. Job done. No crime committed. To get things done, which involve Thai's on Phuket, you simply need to appeal to their main motivation in life - MONEY - whether that money be real, or otherwise.

I'm aware of the health dangers of spraying it. That's why I use the 'dab' method I mentioned. Edited January 1, 2017 by Chainsaw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeab1980 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 (edited) we use burning method a bit at a time a bit of gasoil in a pump spray spray area to be burned then stand away and throw firework into area once burning we make sure it not spread more than we want it to. Reason is we have dogs not want them on land with chemicals to kill weed. Edited January 1, 2017 by jeab1980 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmax2 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Just pay a contractor to clear the land if the owner wont do it after getting their permission Ask around locally someone should know who owns the land or ask the local government office Probably no regulations here about keeping land fire safe so the owner does not have to clear it Cheapest way out is to shift somewhere else if renting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrwebb8825 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 a couple of liters of diesel and a few matches, wait about 2 hrs and call the fire department. They'll come and clear out all the weeds around your wall for free and charge the owner. Problem solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about you post a picture then we can all see the severity of the issue, particularly where you state encroachment is occurring i.e. "growing over my wall".

HooHaa Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 (edited) On 12/29/2016 at 3:41 PM, Chainsaw said: Glyphosphate (aka agent orange) works fine, add water 5:1 If the weeds are growing over your wall just give them a dab with a rag on a stick. That way you can be selective instead of spraying everything. Nothing will happen for about 3-4 days as it takes that long to get down to the roots but your weed problem will disappear permanently! the active ingredient in round up is glyhosate. sold my monsanto also packaged as vision for commercial applications like conifer release in the silviculture industry. while glyphosate aint exactly benign, it is at least dioxin free, agent orange had all sorts of other chemical bonuses in it. i sprayed it for years as a summer job in university. nasty stuff, but seems i remained fertile.
