Takes multiple applications. Requires removing the vines (a nasty operation, you better wear LONG gloves) and be careful not to get dust or leaf fragments on your skin. And notice that there is no "1 year later" picture. This stuff will kill the existing leaves, but the roots of the vines will be untouched, and they will start regrowing in short otder. So, this video rates a C- or D.

I didn't watch completely until the end, but there ought to be a warning about handling and disposing of the dry wilted remaining poison ivy foliage. Whenever I think about "disposing" of something into the trash, I follow the rules regarding the materials or items, but I always think about the human beings 'down the line' who might handle the trash. For instance, if I discard broken glass, I don't just put it in the trash can and forget it. I try to wrap the broken glass in cardboard or heavy paper, and I write on the outside a cautionary message in large block letters, so that the folks at the waste processing plant don't get hurt. I don't know if there is a way to neutralize the poisonous oils in poison ivy to prevent skin injury to anyone. I have read that even trying to burn poison ivy is dangerous, because the gases in the resulting smoke will cause irritation and harm to the respiratory system.
This is the best video in the subject of getting rid of poison ivy i have seen. Your pics of the ingredients, the sprayer, the tree before and after the ivy was sprayed AND the music was awesome. Thank you 🕊
any vegetable oil will kill the leaves on a hot sunny day. They turn black right away. You can still plant in the area.
Thanks for the info.
Can't believe how fast and easy this was!!! So incredibly happy with the results ♥️☺️💯

Did you tried? It worked?
I’ve tried this and it doesn’t work. The salt, which is what does the killing in Round Up, will kill the leaves, but the actual vine won’t be affected. Sorry
Thanks.
I've tried this snake oil several times on several different sub species of PI in the North Eastern US and have come to the conclusion that while the stuff has an effect on the health of the leaves, it does nothing to effect the health of the root mass. Cutting the vine off at the soil level will only produce a short PI vine which will regrow over time. The leaves of deciduous trees die every fall and return every spring without harming the tree if the root mass and the sugars it stores remain viable during dormancy. The most effective way to destroy poison ivy completely with a folular herbicide is to use a herbicide that contains glyphosate because it will destroy the sugars stored in the plant's roots that were unaffected by the vinegar solution.

Not trying to be a wiseguy here but if you are going to pull off the poison ivy anyway, wouldn't it be easier to just do it without using the chemicals? Especially if you can still catch poison ivy from the dead leaves and vines and have to use the same protection to remove the dead foliange as you would if they were alive. Does it kill the plant down to the root or will with root sprout new vines?

Your correct. All you need to do is pull up the roots then wash all clothes and tools you wore.
wouldn't this mix hurt the tree?
Does not work!
What if you do not want to harm the tree? This tree is already dead.
Wouldn't it be easier just to cut the vine at the base?

From my own experience, after you have contact with poison ivy, you must wash thoroughly all your exposed skin with soap and water. Also, clean your clothes and tools as well to get rid of the oily resin, urushiol, from poison ivy left behind. The worst scenario if you get poison ivy rash after a few days, get the poison ivy treatment from the drugstore and the rash might take a week or two to see improved.

The biggest part of getting rid of the oils is using a wet rag to wash with, as it creates a ton more friction in areas you think are clean, to actually wipe away the oils.

Of course it does it’s an invasive plant that strangles trees that hurt your ecosystem in your yard. It was brought over here from England and it has spread and does much damage. It doesn’t provide food shelter for the important critters in your soil, birds don’t forage in it and it doesn’t provide any food for wildlife.

Why Eason salt instead of table salt ?
@miguelservetus9534

Eason salt is magnesium sulfate. Table salt is sodium chloride. The magnesium is more toxic to plants. The. @mount of table salt needed would render the soil fallow for years. Remember the fall of Carthage? The Romans salted the fields so no one could live there.

I’ve got a LARGE poison ivy patch growing like mad in the crawl space of my home , to which I just found recently doing a remodeling project . I thought it was just an outside thing and sprayed it down with a chemical , which did in fact take care of a lot of it growing on the outside , but it kept growing back , year after year ! Then when I began to take all the old underpinning off , that is when all vines were found growing like new ! The vines are everywhere under there , it looks like a damn grape orchard ! So , please if anyone can help me kill this stuff off for good , then tell me how !, I’m all ears and will listen to all suggestions !! I’m sick of it !!!!
