Killing a Mimosa Stump: Herbicide Paint Method

Mimosa stumps resprout vigorously. To stop regrowth:

Cut sprouts flush.
Immediately paint undiluted glyphosate (Roundup) or triclopyr (Brush-B-Gon) on the fresh cut with a disposable brush.
For large stumps, hack the outer cambium with a hatchet and paint there too.
