Been round cutting it of at the roots, but getting it off the
walls and particularly the wooden fences is problematic.

Any good tips please?


Tried that, did'nt work at least in a period of a few moths. O thought
that it might be absorbing moisture from the brickwork. Sprayed the ivy
and brickwork with root out - killed it fairly quickly

This was about 10 years ago before root out was taken off the list of
approved weedkillers.
