I am horribly allergic to Poison ivy and there are (were) huge patches growing in the woods behind my house. I used to try to clip the stems, very carefully but finally broke down and have found Roundup for poison ivy easy to use and very effective and gratifying, and actually safer for me. I have spent so far $55 on it and consider every penny well spent. My woods back up on school property and I warned school officials years ago about the poison ivy. They ignored me until two kids decided to play cowboys and indians and tied each other up with vines found in the woods. One kid came down with a horrible case and after that the school eleminated it but now, years later, it's back. As for treating it, there is some very expensive stuff (about $40 for a 1.5 oz tube) in the drugstore, but CVS sells it's own version for about $20. It too is worth every penny, and for me completely eliminates the rash after 1 or 2 washings. The Harman Woods News is at http://therealharma LYME DISEASE IS PREVENTABLE! Protect your yard.
