I love the look but it's the work of the devil!

We have a pole which it has consumed, It is the size of a bloody tree!!! Have just started to cut it down but not as easy as it looks, will have to saw the thicker branches. We rent and haven't told the landlady we are chopping it down Blush

Our old garden used to be swamped by the stuff. Literally took at least a foot off each boundary (and it was a tiny garden) as it was so huge and overgrown with lots of spiders and flies and snails living in it. Garden was just covered with roots for it so was a big job to pull it all out. Also wrecked the fences.

this is good at killing it off. We had ivy along a 80 metre stretch of fence, I sprayed it to kill it and then dp later spent an afternoon pulling it off with much satisfaction. It made it brittle and easier to pull off.
