Default Poison Ivy -- Getting Rid of It


"Chip G." wrote in message
...
On my recently purchased property I have a huge poison ivy problem.
Poison ivy is found in every rock wall (several), around the base of
nearly every tree (plenty), and even in large areas of grass (which
used to be over grown with tall grass and small shrubs). What is the
best method to kill the poison ivy without killing all the grass,
trees, and shrubs which surround it?

After one bout of the oozing rash this year I have finally become an
expert of identifying the "leaves of three". Unfortunately with the
size of the local population I don't have much choice about "leaving it
be".

Thanks for your help,

If I recall properly poison ivy is susceptible to most weed killers. Whack
it now and then again in 2 weeks.
