Ivy Trimming for Safety Along Sidewalks and Driveways
Ivy can add a beautiful, lush look to your property, but when it grows unchecked, it can create safety hazards along sidewalks and driveways. Overgrown ivy can obstruct pathways, make surfaces slippery, and even hide tripping hazards. Trimming ivy not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of your property but also ensures safety for your family, guests, and neighbors. So, how do you go about trimming ivy effectively and safely? Let’s dive into the details.
