I hate to break it to you, but Roundup doesn't really work on poison ivy. It doesn't work well on any of the waxy-leafed plants.

However, Monsanto does have another product for the purpose: Roundup® Poison Ivy.

I've never had cancer, but I also haven't had a bad rash from poison ivy or poison oak since I was 4. I regard both risks as low. I have to admit, though, that I'd rather have a toxic plant rash than cancer.

I use Roundup every year on the New Hampshire gravel driveway. I try to stand upwind of it when I spray.

I am allergic to poison ivy.
Let me see . . . the slight possibility that I might
get cancer versus the immediate pain and suffering
from coming into contact with the devil weed.

No contest.
Pass the roundup.
