Hi Guys
On my five acres off to the East side there are about 1&1/2 acres of trees mostly silver maple. I was over there yesterday cleaning up and noticed that about half the trees have poison ivy growing up them. I spent about half the day cutting the vines and stripping it to the ground and recutting it. Is there anything i can spray on the ground to kill the ivy that will not harm the trees? Or is this something i will have to do every year. Some of the vines were as big around as a nickel and i am afraid it will damage the trees if i let it go.Thanks. Gary
