7. Unfortunately the only thing I've found that works is a spray called Brush Killer

It seems to work really well on poison ivy. I also use it the Branson Pear seedling trees and Trumpet Vine sprigs. I don't do a wide spray. I put it on the narrow spray and just hit where I've snipped. I had poison ivy in a garden in the back yard and used the Brush Killer. I haven't seen it return. Now I'm carefully using it on the stuff growing on the foundation of the house because that garden area is where I feed the ferals so I don't want it anywhere but on the poison ivy.
