I have a rogue tree growing under my deck.
I hack the branches off, but each year it comes back bigger.

Is there some way I can kill it, or do I have to tear up my dig and
dig it out?

By the way, I think it's a mulberry tree.

Mulberry trees are hard to kill. The only thing that has ever worked for me is
to cut it off as close to the ground as possible, then pour salt over the cut
surface.

This will work best in the fall.

1. Crawl under the deck, cut the tree down, paint the stump with full
strength (straight out of the bottle) roundup or weed killer.

2. Quit spitting seeds off your deck.

They make tree killers and sell them at walmart.

Go to the garden section and ask for a broad leaf plant poison.
