Why Ivy Removal Requires Ongoing Maintenance
Ivy can be a beautiful addition to your landscape but can quickly become a problem if not managed properly. While removing ivy may seem like a one-time solution, it actually requires ongoing maintenance to prevent it from returning and to protect your property. In this article, we’ll delve into why ivy removal requires continual care and how you can keep your yard looking great.
