Hi, 

It may take a few times of doing it. What herbicide product did you use? Was the timing right for it? 

You can review our Tree of Heaven page for tips. Further down on the page there is a link to Penn State Extension that has some detailed steps to follow. There is also a helpful video you can check out. 

Let us know if you have more questions with any of it,
