How and when do you kill Poison Ivy in Dallas/Ft. Worth area?

Pull,cut remove when it's dormant (still wear protection sap from stems) spray with Round-up in growing stage. It is perennial so does go dormant no matter where you live. Remove as much as possible while dormant(protect yourself gloves,mask,becareful of any sap or touching leaves onto clothes or shoes) then when it begins to regrow spray heavily with Round-Up. Round-Up soaks in leaves into plant into root system killing plant. Get good sprayer add Round_up(use concentrate not premixed & you need to mix stronger than directions) add food coloring to it so you can see where it is being sprayed hold nozzle low onto plants,don't spray if even breezy/windy,don't get in wet solution,wear disposable gloves,mix it where you are spraying to contain spillage. Whenever you see new growth begin to emerge spray it asap. Poison ivy if well established is really hard to be rid of, on really mature plants with woody stalks( I've seen it 1-2"(bigger)in diameter growing up trees, on chimneys) mix Round-Up half water to half concentrate ratio don't forget food coloring. Round_up is no more deadly than any other chemicals on market. People get complacent when using over the counter store bought chemicals if you use it correctly it's no worse than putting a bunch of hazardous flea,tick,mosquito stuff on your beloved pets. Chemicals are chemicals

There's a spray made especially for poison ivy. It works great. Just make sure that when the vines die off, they are still dangerous for you Make sure to use gloves when you remove them take precaution not to touch them. where things you can throw awayand make sure you have long sleeps. put gloves over not under the sleeve or wash right away. Put directly in garbage bags. The oil (the part that makes you itch) will be on it forever so take precautions even when shoving in the bags. Not sure how much you're getting rid of. Rinse off all tools you use because the oil will be on them and further down the line you might forget and touch it then try and figure out why you're breaking out. Water down the area when you're done. Make sure you pull out as much root as possible.

Well if you're in the country goats love it and so do my chickens. It's easier to spot in the spring because right now it's pretty doormat..

3 cups white vinegar

1/2 cup table salt

1 tablespoon liquid detergent or soap (I use Dawn) for stick-to-itiveness.

Directions

1. Mix vinegar and salt until the salt is completely dissolved. Stir in liquid dish soap, and pour into a spray bottle.
2. Spray onto the green growing leaves of the plants.
3. Wait a week, then repeat on any survivors. Best time to apply: during a dry spell.

Repeat as necessary.

This is just the thing! I find this works wonderfully. You have to cut the poison ivy or oak and then brush this on the top of where you cut it. Bonide
