On Maui, cat s claw is currently restricted to Kakipi gulch on the windward north shore. What should you do if you see this plant in areas other than Kakipi gulch? 2. Dig out the root of the vine, if possible. Otherwise, cut the vine near the root of the plant, and treat with an appropriate herbicide. 3.
