Ivy & Vine removal

[Albablue]

Hi guys,

I’m looking to DIY create more space in my garden and clean it up with some fresh artificial grass (personal preference), but I’m unsure where to even start with the surrounding walls and weeds.

ivy is out of control, I’ve literally just cut it out from inside the shed.

Also what I believe from google the Maidenhair vine (creeping wire vine) is currently dormant but it’s a mess and rooted into the ground.

Could anyone offer any advice please on how to completely eradicate kill and remove all this rough?

Glyphosate 36 seems a popular choice but I’m unsure what the better brand product is to choose (Rosate, Gallup or Monsanto). Also how to tackle the vine roots from the ground so that nothing starts creeping back in.

Currently January and average 3 degrees in Scotland, I’m more than happy to get busy outside but whether this is the best time of year ton start the project is a good question. For example, should I manually cut out and dig as much as possible now and then spray now or at a later date?







Thank you in advance

“sarcastic joke” removed

Removing lovely vegetation, replacing with artificial grass, swings / climbing frames, kicking balls against the wall, and new fences so you can flout the rules. Bet your neighbours are going to love you.

Which corner sofa did you go for?

I won’t be flouting any rules and haven’t do so either for the past year.

I only made a sarcastic joke about a fence based only on the context that a 3ft wall is not very private. Nor safe.

Sorry if I triggered you through my personal choices to do what’s best suited to us.

Thanks for the judgment and contribution.

Ps. The sofa is a big leather lazy boy. It’s great.
