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

Our Advice:

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