Last summer and again this spring, I sprayed
Round Up on a bed of poison ivy. The stuff
came back. What should I try next?

you could try a product called vine-x.
www.vine-x.com

Or anything with Triclopyr in it.

Well, *my* method is to pull it out by the roots.

I'm immune to the stuff, though. Most people aren't.

Maybe you have a buddy who is?

Round-up works well on poison ivy. The thing it, you probably need to apply
it 2 or 3 times during one growing season and possibly again at the
beginning of the next growing season. Poison Ivy is a pretty tough plant,
and if even a small root is left barely clinging to life, the plant will
re-sprout.

That's been my understanding also. You have to spray several times to
actually kill the roots completely.
