Patience.
In time they will wither and go soft and they should (eventually)
brush off the paintwork.
They will have a better hold on the brickwork but they do 'mellow'
with time - or maybe you just get used to the effect. :-)

Hi
Just moved to a new property that had a common type ivy growing up
the
walls, I've managed to remove it but it's left the tiny gripping
(feet) bits
still stuck to the brickwork and paintwork. Anybody managed to
remove these
little leggy bits and if so how?

TIA

Terry
