You also have to understand that if you are treating a high number of stems in one area the Toradon can go through the roots in to the soil and then do damage to the trees that you are trying to release. If you get in a area of very large tree that you are wanting to control there is a good chance that if you inject it with a high level of Toradon, and keep it in the cuts and all of that the can still be some damage inside of the drip line of that large tree.

Yep Jake, that Tordon is some powerful stuff.  If you want to kill everything, it is a good choice.  Otherwise, like you say, use caution or you can nuke the innocent too.  It hangs around in the soil, unlike a number of herbicides that are more user friendly.
