Here's a key thing to do in order to slow it down. You'll never wipe
poison ivy out completely but, after you have killed the plants
growing in your immediate area, go scouting for a 'mother vine'. This
will be a large thick vine winding up a tree.
This is the plant that is putting out all the seed berries that birds
then carry all over the area. Knock one of those out, and you've
actually dealt it a setback. All other killing methods are fine,
you'll just have to do it every year.

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?
