Poison ivy removal in Suffolk County
The North and South Forks, Fire Island, and the woodland lots from Huntington to Riverhead — the county with more poison ivy than any other we serve. We take it out at the root, without herbicides, and haul every piece of it away.
Suffolk is the heart of this problem. The South Fork's beach paths and hedgerows, the North Fork's vineyard margins and farm roads, Fire Island's dune walks, and the deep pine and oak woodland from Huntington east all carry poison ivy in quantity, and much of it sits directly beside where people walk barefoot.
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 Suffolk County
Out here it grows in every form it has. Dune and beach-path poison ivy is low, dense, and mixed into bayberry and beach plum where it is genuinely hard to pick out. Inland, it climbs the pitch pine and white oak. Along the hedgerows and stone-and-hedge field boundaries of the Forks it forms thick continuous runs that follow the boundary for hundreds of feet.
Suffolk is also where the seasonal deadlines are real: a rental turning over, a camp or club opening, a farm stand or tasting room taking visitors. Tell us the date you need the ground usable and we will work to it. On Fire Island and Shelter Island we plan for ferry access and hand-carry, and we still take everything off the island rather than piling it.
