I assume you mean Japanese honeysuckle, Mary Ann, not our native twining honeysuckle. (In the case of honeysuckle if it smells good it's bad.) The National Park Service has manual and chemical suggestions here: http://www.nps.gov/plants/alien/fact/loja1.htm

You may have to move! We are fight ivy! I hate the stuff and neighbors on both sides of us planted it and never tended it. Douglas, I am going to look at this site you suggested.

The vine was just planted this year and it's doing nicely except for the moldy leaves. It's planted on the east side of our house.

All of my gardens and plants are being devoured by grasshoppers. Sevin dust does not work. Does anyone know how to kill them, I prefer a green method.
