Hello Dr. Trey, and welcome to GardenWeb! This is a great place full of great people and we are glad to have you.

I work in the lawn care industry and have quite a bit of experience with most things, but there is one thing I would love to get your opinion and expertise on. Poison Ivy in the lawn.

I recently purchased 14 acres and it is badly infested. I plan to spray it with Lesco 3-Way w/ sticker this weekend.

Do you have any other tips or suggestions to help rid my new lawn areas of this horrible weed?

Thanks so much!

Poison Ivy is best treated with repeat applications of triclopyr alone or in combination with 2,4 D. Best time to control is late summer/ early fall. Absolute best control method (not recommended to those highly allergic) is to cut off PI at base and brush triclopyr onto cut stump.
