all over my yard, and we've been trying to get rid of it for years!!! We've tried everything we can think of... that might kill it but won't harm the trees. Obviously, we've not been successful. If you find something, please share. I've had 2 really bad rashes so far. This last time I went out to attack it, I wore gloves that went all the way up past my elbows and anchored them with rubber bands. Did the rubber bands on my long pants, too. That was over knee high socks! Problem with that is I was overheating in no time flat.
I'm really picky about what gets put on the yard. I won't do chemicals of any kind. My cats don't go outside, except in the catio we built for them. But we do have wandering cats from other residences, and we do have feral cats that are welcome here. In addition, there are opossums and raccoons and deer. None are turned away. I can't grow a garden to save my life (horrible black thumb), so instead all wildlife endear themselves to me. That's why I refuse chemicals. I couldn't live with myself if I knew something I did had harmed or killed one of these critters, wild or domestic.
But it does make it harder to get rid of the poison ivy!!!!
