Default Ivy that wont be killed.

a couple of years ago i went to huge expense to put in a new wooden fence.
the neighbours promptly grew rampant ivy on it, which is climbing up on to
my
shrubs my side and also forcing its way through the vertical fence panes.

i have taken to spraying the ivy thats forcing its way through the fence
panes with a ready made up solution of glyphospate systemic weed killer
which i bought a couple of years ago, but it doesnt seem to be affecting the
leaves at all. is it because its too old, or do i need to make the ivy
leaves wet before spraying them? Any other effective suggestions please?
