Hi, my trick for horse/mares tail is to apply a gel weedkiller, sorry
can't
remember the name of the one i use, has a brush included.
I take a plastic coin bag that you get from banks, brush the gel liberally
inside the plastic bag. Then place the horsetail in the bag, wrap around a
few times and then place a stone or earth sod to keep everything in place
-
after a few weeks it will be dead.
Hope this helps.
Alan
