Hi,

Does anyone have any experience with winning a battle against ivy? Is it
a case of just stripping the roots from the ground on an ongoing basis,
or is there a particularly effective form of weed killer?

Over in uk.d-i-y the standard answer is "angle grinder".
Having just removed a very large Budleia from my daughter's garden I thing
the standard answer on uk.rec.gardening should be "mattocks".

Cheers

Get Mike Crowe to come round, and ask him to fertilise it with his
very own brand of bullshit..........that will kill off pretty much
anything!
