What is the best weedkiller for dealing with ivy?


Glysophate (roundup) will work if you damage the leaves a bit first,
mixing a bit of wall paper paste with it helps it stick to the waxy
leave too. But you only really need to use weedkiller if its got into
stone work as its quite easy to dig out the roots in soil
