Conventional Weed Control

Conventional Weed Control

Safe, targeted solutions for serious weed problems

At Operation Regeneration, we understand that some invasive species require more than goat browsing. For stubborn or deep-rooted weeds, we offer professional conventional weed control techniques that are effective, environmentally responsible, and tailored to your landscape.


Selective Weed Spraying

We use spot-spraying techniques with registered herbicides to control invasive species while minimizing impact on native vegetation.

Ideal for:

  • Selective weed removal around native species
  • Carried out by trained operators
  • Low-volume, high-precision application
  • Integrated with your long-term land management goals

Stem Injection & Cut Surface Treatments

When it comes to woody weeds and persistent species, stem injection and cut surface techniques are precise and highly effective.

Cut & Paint

  • Suitable for small to medium woody weeds
  • Minimised herbicide use.
  • The plant is cut near the base and herbicide is painted directly on the stump
  • Minimizes soil disturbance and off-target damage

Drill & Fill (Stem Injection)

  • Ideal for large or established woody weeds
  • Invasive trees
  • Small holes are drilled into the trunk and filled with herbicide
  • Delivers targeted results with minimal environmental impact

Common targets include:

  • Blackberry
  • Sweet Pittosporum
  • Montpellier
  • Tree tobacco
  • Willow and other invasive trees

Environmentally Responsible

We use minimal impact techniques and products in line with best practice land management standards, always considering nearby waterways, native vegetation, and soil health.
