How can I get rid of ivy which is climbing up a garden wall?

Our Advice:

Cut the ivy back and pull off as much as possible, then let it re-grow until the new shoots are about 30 cm long. You can then treat the new growth with Superfast Long Lasting Weedkiller from Neudorff. The soft, young leaves absorb the chemical more rapidly than old ones, killing the ivy down into the roots.
