Spraying is a Whitetail habitat improvement technique that our specialists use to eliminate invasive vegetation and promote the growth of beneficial forage species in and around your Port Huron property's food plots. By improving cover, access to food, and natural travel routes, we help landowners create a more balanced and productive deer habitat.
Routine habitat spraying is generally followed by specific plantings and soil amendments for lush, deer-attracting forage cover and seamless deer trails that improve movement across your Port Huron property. Whitetail deer habitat improvements are possible on any amount of land you may have!

Targeted Vegetation Control for Balanced Whitetail Cover & Forage
Using proven spraying techniques for targeted vegetation control is a time-honored practice for establishing balanced Whitetail cover and forage. A few of the most common spraying applications we offer for Michigan properties include:
- Food plot establishment—spraying existing hayfields or old plots to kill grass and weeds before planting clover, brassicas, or winter rye
- Food plot maintenance—follow-up sprays to manage weeds in new plots, allowing desirable forage to dominate
- Pathways and travel corridors—creating clear, narrow pathways through the woods to encourage deer movement between food and bedding areas
- Screening and bedding areas—clear specific areas for planting tall dense grasses like switchgrass to provide cover and visual screening
- Brush and stump control—killing brush and stumps after timber harvests or clearing to prevent regrowth and prepare for new plantings
Landowners in Michigan can use these methods to create diverse plots, screens, and trails. To find out more about targeted vegetation control or seed planting, get in touch with the pros at Stafford Land Management today!
Why Applying Spray Herbicides is Preferred Over Manual Clearing
Applying spray herbicides offers targeted and efficient control of invasive or undesirable plants, creating space that allows Whitetail deer to browse and find bedding cover. Spraying offers significant benefits versus manual clearing, especially in our diverse forests where woody invaders often choke out forage plants.
- Quickly eliminates large areas of unwanted brush
- Allows you to kill specific invasive plants while leaving desirable plants intact
- Reduces canopy cover and competition
- Creates more dense undergrowth and bedding areas to keep deer on your property longer
- Offers long-term results by preventing the resprouting of woody plants
