Removing Scrub Trees, Grapevine, and Ivy from a Fence Line

Cut trees (1–5″ dbh) with chainsaw, reciprocating saw, or hand saw. For vines:

• Cut grapevine/ivy at base; let top growth die (2–4 weeks), then pull down.
• Apply cut-stump herbicide (glyphosate or triclopyr) immediately after cutting to prevent resprout.
• Monitor for new seedlings; spot-spray or pull.

Mechanical removal + targeted herbicide = lasting control.
