Hi all you green-fingered types :y
Simple question.....how do you get rid of ivy. Just got loads of it at the back end of the garden. What can I spray on it.
I have a big bottle of neat sheep dip in the garage, if I dilute it a bit and spray that on it, will the tar content kill the plant. Got to be a bit careful, because swmbo has some shrubs there, and my temporary aviary is close by.
Here's hoping :y

Seems a bit extreme Kevin ???
I don't suppose Jamie has asked your opinion in the near past, on how to achieve more garage space ;D ;D ;D ;D

You can either cut it off at the base and let it die or spray it with Glyphosate weedkiller to kill it and the roots

Or cut it off at the base and put black disinfectant or diesel on it,that's what killed mine :y

personally I would cut the stems twice so as you have a gap between, and then paint neat glysophate/roundup over the stems coming from the ground. that way you have no problems with spray drift, and your good lady's plants are safe ! that's what we do for Hampshire schools.
