#3 Poison ivy berries are a high-calorie, high-nutrition food source upon which many birds and animals depend to survive cold winters. The vines provide shelter for ground- and tree-nesting critters. It's only humans who are irritated by the oil on the leaves and vines, and only 75% of us at that. It sounds like we have an evolutionary opportunity here, folks!

.5MT, aloe vera gel is more effective.

#7 That stuff already gets pretty crazy in Virginia. I've chopped down vines of it that were 2" thick at the base.
