Same way you kill all vines: in the fall. It might take 2 seasons to get rid of it all, for good, but I’ve done it in 1-2yrs. Ivy (Hedera Helix) is a bitch to get rid of, once it’s established. Probably the worst vine to deal with, but it’s doable.

My Post #109, to Clint. If you want more detailed instructions, FRmail me and I’ll send you my email addy.

Round-Up Pro, Finale, Weed-B-Gon systemic herbicides are easily available at garden centers and big box stores. The more potent chemicals require an applicator’s license.

Thanks, will try it.

When we moved into this house 30 yrs ago, there was a ton of ivy that was planted as ground cover. yech. Over the years I thought we were rid of it, then in the past couple of years it’s BACK.
