Been discussing this on the Indiana thread. Taking all ideas on removing poison ivy from the property.
I can't use chemical herbicides. Has to be "people and animal safe".
THE STORY
I have a very bad case of PI which I've never had before this year ever. I finally realized that every time I'm around the chickens I'm being exposed to it as there is PI in the wooded area that they run in. They are carriers on their feathers. I think I may have be exposed every time I gather eggs since it's on them and they are likely to leave some residue in the nests and possibly on the eggs.
Anyhow..I've gotten some ideas from the folks on the IN thread and I wanted to put it out here, also, to see if anyone has had any great success with it. I think I really need to try to remove the roots somehow if possible too.
Your experience would be greatly appreciated.
