How to get rid of these vines?

It's on our old house and is have Wisteria vines growing on it...I think we got a tree in the yard it is coming from but the tree was planted by my granddads mother and I don't want it killed.

The vines are taking over the yard and house....how can I get rid of the vines without killing the tree?

Don't want to use roundup because it will kill everything.

Cut the shoots off close to the ground and paint the stem with Brush-B-Gone.

My late aunt had a wisteria monster. I swear if I went by it too slow on the mower it would get a hold of me. I'm pretty sure that a few times when I've walked passed it it made a grab for me.

For control you're probably better off cutting it back and using a stump/brush killer applied with a brush if you are worried about over spray.
