I've been fighting tree of heaven for years, and I've had the most success with triclopyr ester mixed with oil. The product I use is called Pathfinder. Can't use it close to water though. But I've been able to take a couple totally infested acres down to just the occasional seedling. No hacking required, which is nice, just soak the trunk around the base in late summer.
