Is there an easy way to remove ivy? We have ivy on one half of the yard and every summer at some point I decide to tear it out and I do about an hour of work and choke on dirt and scratch my arms up and then poop out. There is still one patch that I cleared out last year (and never planted anything there) and now there’s another patch I worked on yesterday. But it was totally exhausting. I want to get all the ivy out and bring in some better dirt and bark dust and put some pretty but easy to deal with plants in there. At this point the ivy has no trouble growing faster than I can clear.
