We found that it can be pulled up fairly easily...and the runners. Takes
care of them permanently. Systemic weed killer also works well.

May yours have been tender and young...and therefore easy to kill.

Back about July I asked what to do about getting rid of poison ivy growths
around my ponds. I wound up spraying a little Round-Up. I treated each
plant that I could find with its own little squirt, I didn't do much in
the
way of overspray. Anyway, it must not have been poison ivy. It was sure
easy to kill, and it hasn't resprouted or come back. I couldn't have
gotten it all (that's not my style) but I'll be darned if I can find any
of
it. I researched it a lot, I went to websites and identified it (I
thought) from pictures and even ruled out "look alike" plants that are
often mistaken for it. Like I say, I don't react to it (yet) so it has
never been a real big priority for me to recognize it, but I sure didn't
want it around. I probably wiped out the highly endangered last surviving
clump of harmless *poisonus ivyus look alikeus* in North America, but its
gone nonetheless.
