Poison Ivy Attack

Today I launched my offensive against Poison Ivy. It's growing luxuriantly all over our back hedge in the yard. At first I didn't even notice it, but once I found 1 sprig and started pulling, I noticed the huge vines and bushes of it. Ack!
For Round 1, I sprayed as much as I could find with Round-Up. I was gleeful this afternoon to notice that the rich green leaves are already browning up. If they are fully dead tomorrow I plan to uproot. So far, no poison ivy oil has made it past my armor of clothing and rubber gloves. We'll see how it goes tomorrow...
