On the gully at the end of Sexton Rd is the source of the ivy contamination. The ivy is growing up large Phebalium trees and seeding. The birds are then eating the seed and spreading the ivy to the rest of the gully.
*I cut and painted with Glyphosate the upper and lower stumps of the ivy but, because of the size of the plants, I am not at all sure this will work. I get
the feeling that the ivy is getting a good bit of its nutrient for the host trees.
*I have done about 6 metres and will not do more until I know the treatment is successful.
If anyone would like to see it then drive down Sexton Road. It is directly at the end just to the right of the Totara.
