How to get rid of ivy without killing other plants?

[TyrionsNextWife]

My garden is being overtaken by ivy, and my original plan was to hack away the worst of it and then use weed killer on the base to finish it off. The problem is though that the ivy’s intermingled with loads of raspberry bushes that I want to keep, and I’m assuming that the weed killer will damage the raspberries as well.

Any ideas on how to save some stuff, but get rid of the ivy as well? I know nothing about gardening, so idiot proof pointers would be much appreciated

Weed killer won’t kill ivy. You need to buy specialist Ivy and brushwood killer. Cut back as much as you can. Then pour the killer into a jam jar and paint it on the remaining leaves with a small brush. Takes forever and it does keep coming back unfortunately.

I got rid of a huge one growing up the side of my old house by cutting at the base of the main trunk then packing the cut-out wedge with ivy killer and securing plastic around the trunk/poison area. Worked a treat.

Following ive bought a house with an acreage of ivy. Have spent hours cutting it back and it ha sent made a dent yet...

Roundup should kill it if you paint the stump immediately after cutting. Add some washing up liquid to increase its penetration.
