Best Answer

Professional eradication is the way to control poison ivy. The weed in question (Toxicodendron radicans) must be removed with care since people are susceptible to allergic reactions to all parts of the plant. Two ways of elimination require either carefully severing the roots from the shoots, a procedure that commonly is carried out in parks, or solarizing the soil with weighted-down black plastic sheeting until the vegetation dies.
