    Poison Ivy for sale?

    Anybody know where I can find Poison Ivy or something like it for sale??

    Gonna plant it in between me and the neighbors fence. They wont stop throwing dead things in between the fences so I won't stop throwing bad, obnoxious, itchy plants over.

    You'd be better off with something like blackberry bushes, as poison ivy would migrate into your yard in short order, and the doggies would rub against it and you'd have the oil all over your house.

    Have you spoken to the city, or your landlord? Someone owns that area, and should prevent them from dumping stuff there.

    grybai - ooooh I'm doing it alright. they've had it coming for a very long time.

    Karen - we also thought about blackberry bush, to fill the gap between the fences. the thing is that we have a privacy fence on that side - they have old chain link. theres already 1 bush out there, thats taking over their fence and growing out.

    mostly whatever we throw over will probably take over their yard (they never do regular yard maintence). PI would be good since they have kids (their just as guilty.)

    theres nobody we can call, all we do is videotape or take pics of the obvious things they do. and wait for the day they do something to make me call police again.

    No plants on fences-destroys it

    Poison Ivy or other plants growing on or against a wood fence will rot it out quicker and make it unstable. It isn't a good idea to have any plants growing on structures as it causes damage to the structures. Even those brick houses with Ivy all over them have serious issues with plant damages.
    I had an issue with my neighbor forcing me to put up a privacy fence between us. He threatened to take away my dogs!!! His were the one's barking and causing the problems. He'd even stolen part of my land and his dogs were on it!!!
    Your best bet is maybe grow a hedgerow of maybe Holly Bushes or a short evergreen plants. Why make it more ugly to look at for yourself? Have you thought about fruit trees? The fruits would fall over on their side ALOT causing a "mess". A good flowering tree/bush for the allergies is a good irratator!!!

    I like the fruit tree idea or the flowering tree. Apple trees have nice flowers that eventually fall to the ground...making a mess.

    It's a shame you have such sucky neighbors. I use to know exactly how you feel.

    Good luck.

    Poison Ivy is a considered an "invasive" species, so probably illegal to order anyway. What part of the country are you in? It is quick to spread, can climb and kill even large healthy trees and is difficult to get rid of.

    [I was wrong about it being imported - musta been a myth I heard. It is native to parts of North America)/

    I can't imagine why anyone in their right mind would spend their hard-earned money to buy poison ivy. And just when I thought I had heard it all.....

    Same here.

    All this to get a free AD? Karen should bill the poster. JMHO

    Edit: I went to the site.

    Found his home site where the subsite is.

    Question for Karen. This is in the Dog House. So how did he find that post? That post is 6 years old. There were people I didn't even recognize.

    I allowed the person to post, read it before any of you saw it, just because it is relevant to the initial thread, and answers the original poster's question, and you never know if someone might find Pet Talk by Googling that. This person obviously did, and maybe others will.

    I would never buy the stuff, but some people obviously do!

    And any acid or base substance can be corrosive, it's such a nasty oil I wouldn't be surprised if it would removed certain tattoo inks, but know it doesn't remove freckles! I don't actually"get" poison ivy - of all the allergies I have, that isn't one - but have seen others deal with it.
