Always have one arm hooked into the ladder, and move the ladder repeatedly so you never have to stretch out. Even though you clean your land and correctly prepare your ground for cultivation, there comes an ivy or brambles to your land as an uninvited guest. While ivy can damage trees by competing for nutrients and water, smothering their foliage, and adding weight to branches, the decision to kill ivy on trees ultimately depends on the extent of the infestation and the impact it has on tree health.

In terms of protecting wildlife the consensus is pretty similar. Mammals and birds are pretty much ok – the levels of Glyphosate won’t get high enough to cause problems but for some wildlife it is a problem: Several herbicides are effective on ground ivy.
