Default Removing Ivy "Residue"


"TheScullster" wrote in message
...
Is there an effective way to remove the strange patterns left on a painted
brick wall by ivy?
I cut down a fair amount of the stuff yesterday and it leaves marks like
leaf skeletons where the tendrils have been stuck.
Intend to clean and repaint the wall in due course.

TIA
Phil

Soak it for a week with wallpaper paste made up with washing up
liquid~~ diluted. Then use a wire brush.
Remove future ivy some weeks after killing~ it but well before it
dries.
