Poison Ivy is as natural to New England as apple pie is to America.  Its three green leaves contain a menacing oil that is just as potent when its leaves turn red in the fall.  Poison Ivy is typically spread by birds that eat its berries and deposit its seeds where ever they land - including trees, shrubs, flowers and bird baths.  Once in the soil, Poison Ivy's vines grows fast, creeping along the ground, crawling up bushes and trees and anything ornamental or vertical in your outdoor home.  Controlling Poison Ivy is tricky since its oil is in its leaves and vines, and remains active long after the plant has died.  Further, herbicides used to kill Poison Ivy can also kill surrounding plants and vegitation if not carefully applied.  Maltby professionally applies an eco-friendly herbicide to rid your outdoor home of Poison Ivy without damaging your desired plants.  Consider 2-3 treatments to keep Poison Ivy from coming back and reclaiming ornamental and high traffic areas in your outdoor home.
