Just discovered that my backyard has plenty of poison Ivy growing.
This in the woods that belong to me. What is the best way to kill
them? Googling it, I found its not easy to kill, but there is hope.
Has anyone tried the salt+detergent+vinegar combination with any
good results?

The only long term success I have had is to get in there well covered
with gloves, a shovel and a root puller and rip it out by the roots.
Be very careful if you burn it, because the smoke can spread the
resin, even into your lungs and eyes.
