Delray Beach, Florida
Poison ivy removal in Delray Beach starts with where you live. East of the Intracoastal it creeps out of the coastal scrub along A1A. West of I-95 it fills the preserve strips behind the golf communities. Downtown it hides in hedges that are older than most of the houses.
Wherever it is on your lot, we treat it twice and kill it at the root. Then we guarantee it stays gone.
Poison ivy handles salt air just fine. On the beach side of Delray it tangles into sea grape, saw palmetto and the scrub between the dune walkover and the driveway, and it looks like everything else until somebody breaks out.
That ground also holds plants you want to keep. We treat the poison ivy and nothing around it, so the native screen stays standing.
The blocks north of Atlantic Avenue have narrow lots, alleys and hedges that have been growing since the 1950s. Poison ivy roots inside the hedge and sends runners out under the fence to the next yard.
Our guide to spotting poison ivy in a yard shows what to look for along hedge lines and fence posts. When we map the property, we walk every one of them.
Ask anybody who takes a dog to the park at Lake Ida. The brush line between the grass and the water is where the leash tangles, and poison ivy grows right in it. Homes along the lake and the canals that feed it see the same thing in their back corners.

Drive out West Atlantic toward Morikami and the developments back onto preserve land, lake banks and drainage easements. Mowers stop at the property line. Poison ivy does not.

Here is what the treatment does inside the plant, and why it works through the leaves down to the root.
Hacking the vine out of a ficus hedge feels productive. The roots resprout within weeks, and the cut pieces still carry urushiol on the trimmer, the gloves and the lawn bag.
If someone in the house keeps getting a rash and cannot say from where, read about urushiol and your skin. Then leave the plant standing for us to treat.
Google reviews from past clients.
Brazilian pepper, air potato and old Australian pine stumps turn up all over Palm Beach County. On the site visit we point out the poison ivy and anything else worth dealing with.

After the final treatment, you get no live poison ivy for the rest of that year and the full next calendar year. Spot one? Send a photo matched to your property grid and we come back.
