A rash of good luck.
The back corner of my yard has always had an issue with poison ivy. The neighbor directly behind me deals with it on his side as much as he can, and we do our best to handle it on our side. However, since the other two neighbors do nothing at all, it's impossible to keep it from coming back every year. We've mentioned it to them in the past and that didn't change anything so I need a solution that will keep it on their side of the property line.
Right now there's only a chain link fence separating the properties. I'm working on replacing that with solid wood panels but prices are nuts right now so that might not happen until next year. There's also English ivy and Virginia creeper all up in the mix. I'd be down for something that could obliterate all 3, but still settle for any creative solution that would avoid another instance of my current misery (because not only am I allergic to the poison ivy, I'm also allergic to the steroid prescribed to deal with it. Yay!)
Edit because the post is locked: geez, I stepped away for a bit and y'all got busy! Thank you all for the replies. I'm going to try approaching them with the goats option, which seems surprisingly affordable.
To the few of you suggesting burning it, whether joking or not, please for the love of god do NOT do that. 40 years later, and my mom still talks about that time a neighbor burned his ivy and my little toddler face was so swollen she couldn't see my eyes.
It was a rash decision.
A new course opened in my area that is real covered with it. I try and watch for it (Iβm not the best at identification) but sometimes my discs just land in it. Do people wash there discs?
Girlfriend loves Poison Ivy from the Harley Quinn show and has been really into plants recently. She would love a commission of her drawn as poison ivy from the show, she has a similar leather jacket as well. Preference towards women artists because of her preferences/comfort level sharing photo to strangers, but quality is quality so not exclusively.
This story takes place in a forest with 3 of us there. There was me, friend 1, and Kevin. Me and friend 1 were trying to teach Kevin about the benefits of plants until we come across some poison ivy. We said to Kevin, "Hey, don't touch that! That's poison ivy, and it can hurt!" Kevin, who was half-listening to us argued, "Leaves don't hurt! None of them do!" And presumed to rub his hands against the ivy, before exclaiming "See!" My friend, who was just looking to skrew around with Kevin, said that he would give Kevin $40 to rub poison ivy all over his face. He did, and we gave him the money.
The next day, things did not go so well for Kevin. I can imagine what he looked like, but he stayed inside for the next 2 weeks.
He doesnβt like to make rash decisions.

Ticks are now active at VF. I saw one crawling on my pants leg, but was able flick it off. Poison Ivy is coming up, too. So have a care when bushwacking across the Grand Parade.
I hope not, i want to see clayface,poison ivy or mr freeze in the sequels, but if he is going for a realistic approach we might not see them, which sucks because i want a batman movie that is a little bit more unrealistic
sorry for bad english
