Default Killing Ivy, not bulbs

I have a variety of small invasive ivies. Some thorny.

Every year they take over my bulb corner. You can't pull them all out.
So, I'm spraying with triclopyr.

How careful of the bulbs (they've been in years) should I be? I
particularly want to get the ivy spiraling up the leaves of the glads,
irises and lilies.

Another plan?

What about poison ivy?

On another note. My neighbors tomato factory,which I tend, is going to
town. A large number of 4" or so heirlooms. Some small tomatoes already
picked.
