Dig it out by hand. If you can isolate individual clumps you can use boiling water. Anything stronger will kill the ivy you want to keep.Helpful Reply -

Only way i know w/o killingit all is to adorn some long up to you elbows rubber gloves, long sleeves and start to pull it out by the root's. an alternative is use brush killer and spot treat at the base of the poison ivy then pull it out when it is totally dead. ( make sure it is killed to the root)Helpful Reply -

Get some Round-Up for Poison Ivy and wearing gloves and a long sleeved shirt, carefully paint the leaves if you are not able to spray the area. You need to kill the roots.Helpful Reply -
