If you want to decrease the value of your land plant trees so some nimby can come in designated it as protected habitat and then prevent you from maintaining or cutting any of them down. Tree law is almost as bad as HOA laws. Even if it’s not designed once a tree gets too big you loose any right to manage or maintain it
"Oh no, my trees have been attacked by an unknown disease and they're all dead now! I guess we'll have to cut them down :'("
A well placed hole with a 1/2 inch drill bit, and 100% glyphosate does wonders to a tree. Make sure the hole is slanted downwards, so the glyphosate stays inside to be transported by the cambium.
If you get caught they will make you replace them and or pay a 10-50k fine.
Zero chance if you do it right.
Another option if you don't want to leave marks on the tree is to pour Tordon (picloram) at the base of the tree.
Sociopathic post, tbh.
Killing a tree in my own land is "sociopathic"? That's a pretty loose interpretation of the word.
