Is there a contact herbicide that I can use to eradicate unwanted hackberry seedlings and offshoots of a trumpet creeper vine?

Spray individual shoots with the highest recommended rate on the label for a glyphosate-containing herbicide (non-selective) as soon as they emerge. It is a constant battle. Ensure that desirable plants are protected during the spray process. Any plants that are contacted by the spray will likely be adversely affected.
