Poison ivy growing next to sidewalk
Poison ivy growing next to sidewalk
We've had a problem with invasive Tree of Heaven ever since the city came a couple years ago to clear the overgrowth in the "alley" space at the northwest corner of the property. Since then, the overgrowth has of course returned, but it's now more aggressive, with the inclusion of Tree of Heaven, which is spreading to the rest of the property. It might be a good idea to clear that overgrowth again. Perhaps there are other preventative measures that can be taken.
House is vacant and backyard is seriously overgrown with ivy and has nesting rats. Neighbors are mowing front yard so our cul de sac doesn’t look bad.Fence is falling down on 2 sides.
Owner/occupants are not mowing the grass.
Invasives in the right of way, the north property line, and along the creek including privet, poison ivy, burning bush, & multiflora rose.
