My Leopard tort. has free run of the back yard but.....

Posted by Martin on May 09, 2001 at 19:53:31:

Hi,
I have recently moved into a new home and the back yard is fenced so my Leopard tortoise can roam all he wants. The problem is I have bind weed (related to morning glory) that grows in profusion. This is a very difficult weed to control, as the roots can go 10 feet deep. It is growing everywhere in the lawn, so I can't spray it with anything. If my tortoise eats some, will it hurt him? I have not seen him eat anything other than dandelions but what if....? Have any ideas, comments or suggestions?
Thanks
Martin
