I will refer you first to an excellent\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/extension.unh.edu\/resource\/methods-disposing-non-native-invasive-plants#:~:text=Use%20heavy%20black%20or%20clear,pavement%20for%20the%20best%20effect\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/extension.unh.edu\/resource\/methods-disposing-non-native-invasive-plants%23:~:text%3DUse%2520heavy%2520black%2520or%2520clear,pavement%2520for%2520the%2520best%2520effect&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1687004637939000&amp;usg=AOvVaw0uB1SbMwm3zMxAPoV7VjNH\">UNH Extension resource on disposing of plant material<\/a>. It sounds like you don&#8217;t have the capability to burn the debris on site, so you could contact your local town office to see whether the transfer station burns or chips excess plant material (we do not recommend this for pernicious species like multiflora rose). If that doesn&#8217;t pan out as an option, the UNH resource gives good instructions for how to bag the debris and dispose of it in the trash.<\/div>\n<p>Moving forward, please take a look at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/extension.psu.edu\/multiflora-rose-control-in-pastures#:~:text=Herbicides%20recommended%20as%20being%20effective,methyl%2060DF%2C%20and%20Spike%2020P.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/extension.psu.edu\/multiflora-rose-control-in-pastures%23:~:text%3DHerbicides%2520recommended%2520as%2520being%2520effective,methyl%252060DF%252C%2520and%2520Spike%252020P.&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1687004637939000&amp;usg=AOvVaw12ZJNzkmPAqfZ3g8_KSCjh\">this Penn State Univ Extension page on multiflora rose<\/a>\u00a0for advice on how to combat the species.
