RE: Hi I'm A Newbie with a ??

Holli: Think I'd try Rich's Vine-X...last time I dealt with poison ivy
it involved digging it out, foot by miserable foot of underground
runners, spraying the area with round-up and covering it over with black
plastic for two years to insure it didn't come back. So far so good...no
sign of it in over 4 years, but what a labor intensive practice that
was!

Subject: [CHAT] Hi I'm A Newbie with a ??

HI I'm Holli, a really good friend Donna, had told me about this great
<br>gardening group, so I decided to join up! Havent had the greatest
garden this <br>year, but it was passable. I was disappointed this year,
but the bees seem to <br>enjoy it! LOL <br> Anyway I have a question.. I
am loaded with POISON IVY, in the back yard <br>and so is the family in
the house behind me. She did have someone do removal <br>tonight and
then they were going to spray something in the grown so it wont <br>come
back next year.<br>Is there a safe way to remove it ... it really is in
a bad area..it's by the <br>pond and continues across the back of the
yard and entwined in all my pine <br>trees. And of course I have a
dog.<br> <br>Any suggestions?<br>Thank You<br>Holli
