If you already have the Rodeo Herbicide you can certainly use that product to kill trees. You would want to use the product undiluted and paint or spray it just as your local agency suggested, immediately after cutting it down to a fresh stump. Depending on the size of the tree and its root system, you may have to do a follow up application after a few weeks. You should not use herbicides when temperatures are near or below freezing; post-emergent herbicides like Rodeo will work best when plants are actively growing.

Just to be clear, Crossbow Herbicide is not labeled for aquatic use like the Rodeo Herbicide is. So if you are using this in or around water where you would have run off we would not recommend mixing these two products. If not then you would mix them at 1 1/3 - 5 1/3 oz of Crossbow per gallon of water, and 2 2/3 oz of Rodeo per gallon. We always recommend you do a small treatment area to be sure that these combined products will not cause any damage.
The product label for Rodeo Herbicide does not list specific drinking well restrictions, so we would recommend avoiding application in a way that would directly contact a drinking well, as well as keeping applications at least 15 feet from a drinking well.
