Other than poison oak, I don't see a problem.

Too much time on the "What Snake is This" group. I swore there would be a few copperheads in that picture until I read the comments.

"Leaves of five, let thrive. Leaves of three, let it be." This is the way to tell if it is harmless or not.

It's amazing how many snipers can fit into such a tight space and be virtually unrecognizable

Took me about 2 seconds to realize there wasn't a rattler in all that poison Ivy.

So that's not marijuana? You mean we shouldn't smoke it?

I jumped more when that picture opened than if I was surprised by a snake in the wild.

Im not highly allergic, and the deer will do the dirty work of reducing it.

Yep.

My buddy asked me to take a look at his new lot he just bought to help him get some ideas about the creek in the back. We're walking around looking at the slope and seeing how we can lay out a nice little secluded patio for adult beverages and cigars on the bank.

My buddy "what does poison Ivy look like"

Me : " that stuff your standing in"

My buddy : " WHY THE HELL DIDN'T YOU SAY SOMETHING!!!"

Me : "Because I'm not allergic and therefor don't even look for it"

My buddy : "&^*&%^$&%$&^%&^%&^%&^%*&^*&^"

Leave it. Why would I want to get rid of a mostly evergreen browse plant with 15-20% crude protein? The cattle like it too for the short time they're here. 300 head of 500# stockers coming in on 150 acres for 2-3 weeks shortly.

Plus you can eat the tubers in a pinch.

I have a few trees so covered with it you cant see the tree, which is often dead. There is plenty left over for browse in areas I'll never get to. Triclopyr/diesel gets about 50% kill and its a hassle. What comes back seems to be even tougher. Other vine brush is much easier to control. Thought maybe you had a secret weapon.

You're blind, that's not an audad, it's clearly a mountain lion

Boxelder trees commonly have three leave clusters, especially the smaller saplings. Not poisonous, but looks like poison ivy.

So not always.

Sorry, didn't mean to cut you off like that. We don't have any to that degree. I almost wonder if a Remedy/Diesel stem treatment might work. It would be tough to do without a lot of waste.

Yeah that's what I've been doing (diesel/Remedy) but lots of collateral damage and its not 100%. Thanks.

It would be tedious, but would a small paintbrush work on those stems?
