Poison ivy removal in Brooklyn
Brownstone gardens, Ditmas Park's Victorian lots, and the Marine Park and Canarsie shoreline where ivy comes off the marsh. We take it out at the root, without herbicides, and haul every piece of it away.
Brooklyn's poison ivy sits in two very different places: the deep back gardens of the Victorian and brownstone blocks (Ditmas Park, Prospect Park South, Bay Ridge), where a neglected rear corner is all it needs; and the southern shoreline neighborhoods around Marine Park, Gerritsen Beach, and Canarsie, where it arrives off the salt marsh.
Wherever it is growing — a fence line, the base of a tree, a path edge, a woodland boundary — the fix is the same: take out the vine and the root run underneath, then get the material off the property so there is nothing left to touch.

Why it thrives here
The ground in Brooklyn
In the garden blocks it climbs the party-wall fences and the old sycamores and goes unnoticed behind a garage for years. On the shoreline it is a low sprawling mat in sandy ground, tangled through beach plum and bayberry, which is exactly the scrub people walk dogs through.
Access is the Brooklyn constraint. Most of these gardens are reached through the house or a narrow side alley, so this is careful hand work with everything carried out and bagged. We schedule around that rather than pretending a truck can pull up to the back fence.

- Why is poison ivy such a problem in Brooklyn?
- In the garden blocks it climbs the party-wall fences and the old sycamores and goes unnoticed behind a garage for years. On the shoreline it is a low sprawling mat in sandy ground, tangled through beach plum and bayberry, which is exactly the scrub people walk dogs through.
- What does poison ivy removal cost in Brooklyn?
- It depends on how much there is and how hard it is to reach, which is why we do not quote over the phone. The on-site assessment and the written estimate are free, the price you sign is the price you pay, and haul-away is included rather than added at the end.
- Will it come back after you remove it in Brooklyn?
- Not from the root run we take out — that is what the written guarantee covers. Access is the Brooklyn constraint. Most of these gardens are reached through the house or a narrow side alley, so this is careful hand work with everything carried out and bagged. We schedule around that rather than pretending a truck can pull up to the back fence.
