The message
from "H Ryder" contains these words:

I've got lots of dark green, wild, common ivy in the garden. I sprayed it
all well with ivy killer a couple of weeks back but nothing seems to have
happened. Any suggestions? TIA


I'd have thought you'd have to wait longer than that.

If it doesn't work, either cut the leaves a bit by giving it a good
hiding with a length of old electric cable, then spray it with
glyphosate.

Put a little washing-up liquid into the weedkiller because ivy leaves
don't wet easily.
