At first I did not know what the the name of the vine that that was growing everywhere I looked. It was covering trees, posts, signs etc. I believe, like you believe that something should be done as it is killing the trees and we need the trees for our environment. I spoke with the locals and no one knew if anything was being addressed to this problem. I live in Canada and we do not have the weather to grow Kudzu (which I am happy about) I am still concerned about its effect in the states. I believe more information about kudzu and its effect should be brought out to the public so that research or anything can get the ball rolling on rectifying this situation. If left alone it can and will cause major problems. I have been traveling thru the US this past summer and I could not believe what I saw.
