How to remove ivy?

Drug cleanup

If the ivy is too dense and you just want to deal with it simply, it is recommended to use this method of spraying pesticides to inhibit its growth. You can go to a specialized pesticide store to buy herbicides or growth inhibitors, and use agricultural spray to spray the overly dense areas. The operation is generally carried out in sunny weather. After waiting for a few days, the branches and leaves sprayed with the medicine will turn yellow and dry. Then the dry branches and leaves can be removed.

However, this method may cause unsightly exterior walls, uneven cleaning, and may also cause environmental pollution around the residence.

Manual cutting

Everyone knows that the suction force of ivy attached to the wall is very strong, and it is basically impossible to pull it off by brute force. So if you want to completely remove the ivy on the wall, you need to use tools to cut it. The simplest and most effective way is to find the main stem of the ivy and cut it horizontally with a machete or saw. But at this time, the ivy is still firmly climbing on the wall, so you have to wait patiently for a while, waiting for the leaves to turn yellow and the branches to wither, and then the stems will naturally come out from the cracks in the wall. In this way, people can completely clean all the stems and leaves of the ivy by pulling the branches from below.

Although this method is clear and thorough, it does require patience in terms of time.
