Can some of you give me the pros and cons on these two. The land we just leased has been spraying after the pines are thinned. And it sounds like the deer population is lesser now. Just don't have any experience with spraying.

I've done both. Still use both. Simple answer. Burning promotes more desirable understory conditions with a huge diversity of herbaceous growth. Selective herbicides determine what grows and where.

Matt,
Do you normally see a short term drop in your deer population after you spray? If so, how long before things return to normal?

Matt,
Do you normally see a short term drop in your deer population after you spray? If so, how long before things return to normal? Yes, and it's usually two growing seasons before things get back to "normal".

True, but AL state law says that if you take appropriate precautions AND have a registered forester on hand with burn permit, you're in the clear. Liability still scares me too but at least that law helps. That's criminal, not civil. You can still be sued. Insurance covers civil, not criminal. Insured forester covers it all.
