Make sure it's the Roundup that kills EVERYTHING! Even after it is killed use gloves, rake and plastic bags to get rid of it. If you burn it the smoke spreads the "ivy juice" on you. I'm speaking from experience and I am very susceptible to poison ivy.

Never EVER, ever, use RoundUp to kill anything!! It's got Glysophate and it's a known carcinogen!

Unfortunately, they keep making it. Please DON'T expose your family and pets to this product.
