Know your property lines BEFORE clearing…

[@sharrongrattan5940]

When you cut the poison ivy vine going up the tree, immediately paint the part of the stem going into the ground with brush killer. If you don’t, it will grow back. If you paint it right when cut, the liquid goes down into the remaining stem. If you wait, it seals itself and will regrow. Good luck.

[@karencuster6030]

Remember…leaves of 3 let it be , leaves of 5 let it thrive . For poison ivy and poison oak . You guys are doing great !!!!

[@81dawgfr]

Unfortunately, that always doesn't work. Box Elder trees when just starting out can be misidentified by those who really don't know their plants as poison ivy. Young Box Elder Maples also may have three leaves with reddish stems. The main difference PI groups of three leaves are placed alternately along the main stalk. The maple's groups of three leaves are placed opposite along the main stem. Obviously if it's on a vine it's not a maple.

[@jimmyandkathyharrell]

Maple is a tree. Poison ivy is a vine

[@81dawgfr]

@@jimmyandkathyharrell I stated that as well. But sometimes I am astounded that critical thinking skills have almost disappeared. Have you seen the movie, "Idiocracy"? If so, I saw a few humorous memes from that movie. My favorites are: "Idiocracy was meant to be a comedy, not a tutorial!" "What if Idiocracy isn't a movie, but is a documentary?" "I fear the day that technology will surpass our human interaction. The world will have a generation of idiots." -- Albert Einstein We need to get back to human Iinteractions and caring for one another. Relying on technology for interactions is not really healthy and people are losing their compassion and empathy for those less fortunate than ourselves. We are also losing the ability to laugh at ourselves and tolerate the beliefs of others that may differ from our beliefs.

[@michaelwaddeington5307]

Shannon, doesn't matter if it's up to your knee or ankle, ALWAYS step on the tree and make a long step away. Snakes take refuse under logs. Step on and away. Kyle at this point doesn't know this and his legs are long enough he steps away naturally but most don't. Mike

[@bethanyfields4706]

Kyle, my husband Chad used to get POISON IVY so BAD that he would have to get shots at the hospital. Our property has vines running up some of the GIANT OAKS that are as large as my forearm. He LOVES to work OUTSIDE. It's is peaceful place, his excitement, and the place where he feels successful. So, what does he DO when he KNOWS he's gonna be mowing, trimming, building in a dangerous area? HE PRAYS THAT GOD WOULD PROTECT HIS SKIN. I've only seen a handful of bumps on him, since 2008. You guys do what's best for YOU. I just had to give God the glory for protecting him. Be good, don't work too hard. Watch out for this FLYIN' STINGIN' MACHINES!! God bless you!

[@kayashmore4296]

Goats love poison ivy. They will take care of it for you!

[@dboley1950]

When you get your dog don't forget to get the pill for flea and tick . The ticks will probably be thick in the wooded area. My dog got them between the toe and hid. Now for that poison ivy, long sleeves and gloves to pull the vines down . Don't let them hit you on the neck or face.

[@ramonab]

When I lived in poison oak country, we used lysol to spray on everything that we might touch including our shoes. Then anything that could be washed was washed. You will also want to spray the bottom of your shoes, so you don't track the oil into your vehicles or home.

[@pamelamercado6902]

Ivy should always be cut as low as you can get it . Leaving 6 in or more quite often it does not die and especially if it's a well-established plant another thing that will help to ensure that it dies is to put boiling water on it soak the roots I don't spray deadly chemicals on my property we always had great success doing this. We bought a new place last year and I am still working on it it takes time but when project is done I'm always like woohoo. You both should be very proud of yourself you've done so much and actually such a little time

[@elliepedigo3390]

I'm highly allergic to poisonn ivy and my doctor told me to shower with dawn dish soap within 4 to 6 hours after being around it. I have not got it since. been 5 yearss now.

[@flaviasollecito8760]

I SENT A RECEIPE TO KILL WEEDS, WORKS ON POISON IVY.& DAWN TO WASH SKIN AND CLOTHES

[@vmcougarintn5035]

I have shampoo, don't ask don't know the name, that my now deceased daughter bought for me. It seems to help with the THREE poisons too. I imagine that it has similar properties to Dawn. Dawn dish soap has many many uses. Buy the giant economy size!

[@Og-Judy]

When I was a kid,, my mom used Fels Naptha soap on our arms and legs to make sure we didn't get into poison ivy hiking in the nearby ravine. 😛😁

[@heatherd.9390]

I swear by Dawn dish soap. I used to do oil paintings (now disabled) and when I had a show one time, I realized that of the two aprons I had, I only had my.... let's say "colourful' (with paint, etc.) apron and my "good/clean" one I'd loaned to a friend. Well, I had nothing to use, and nothing to lose, so I picked off the 'chunks' of dried paint the best I could and then I poured a dab of soap on each spot, gave it a very light scrub with a wet scrubby, let it soak a few hours, I put it in the sink and rinsed it out and if I could tell where any spots were still, I put a bit more soap on them front and back, chucked it in the washing machine, hung it to dry (don't put things in the dryer until you know if it's all out) and it was clean as a whistle. I washed it one more time for good measure, chucked it in the dryer and you'd have had a hard time knowing it was previously such a mess. If dish soap can get rid of old oil paint on a canvas apron, that's good stuff. To this day, my daughter and I use small ponytail elastics to bunch up a bit of the fabric on our clothing where a spot is, such as salad dressing, etc. that is oil based. We've saved so much clothing from otherwise becoming 'painting, cleaning, etc." shirts, haha! I swear I have a bottle of Dawn in my kitchen, laundry room and each bathroom! Get the three pack at Costco, lol! Heather🇨🇦

[@OurOkieHomestead]

Dawn! I will have to try that! Thanks!

[@petgranny194]

I live in the city and got a survey right away. I wanted to know who was responsible for retaining walls and where the property lines were before doing anything. I've seen fence lines that were 10-20 feet off. Sometimes the builder just throws up fences, sometimes it is intentional encroachment. Surveys aren't cheap but will save you in a law suit,

[@heatherd.9390]

They say fences make good neighbours, but I would say that only if the fence is on the property line, lol! 10-20 been encroachment! Especially now-a-days with all of the GPS and high(er) tech surveying equipment. That's craaaaaazy!

[@Bear-Ur2ez]

I have always placed my fence 6 inches inside my property line . And sprayed total vegetation killer on that six inches for several reasons. One being weeds and unwanted vegetation growing through the fence .

[@michaelwaddeington5307]

Kyle, you were looking up into the trees and you were right, unfortunately the main way it's spread is just like cedars. Birds! Unlike goats they love the berries so it's really hard to get rid of. Non the less get the crap out of the upper trees, bring in the goats, don't over feed them, make them eat the ivy and you're maybe 1/4 quarter of the way to getting it away from you homestead. Mike

[@vgil1278]

And then remember-don't pet the goats or dogs till they have a bath. You can get it from the oils that get on their coats and faces.

[@annchapman8495]

I am glad you two did that, can't wait to get you two out their, so exciting, love the puppy you got from the walkers it is so cute, he is going to be great. Can't wait to get your trailer out their.

[@MY2DUCKS]

I vote yes to your original first video. Also, the next time you go to Home Depot, Lowes etc look for citronella clips. It will keep the bugs away from you and you guys won't be swatting them away so much. They go on your hat or belts. 💜🙏

I love being part of your lives as you venture into this bright new chapter. You two are doing a wonderful job.

[@maryiverson5874]

My son got it from the smoke and affected his eyes and face for two weeks.So glad you know not to burn it

[@Lollylobacres]

My daughter says to look for the set of three leaves that looks like an award turtle. So, use dawn dish soap to spray off your 4wheeler, boots/shoes, and anywhere you think poison ivy hit you. It is the oils of the plant that people react to.

[@lindasnyder9479]

I'm glad to learn about the poison ivy. Either we don't have any or I'm not sensitive to it, thank goodness! So sorry about your awning. We lived in a 5th wheel because of my husband's job had us all over the place and the worse place we lived was Ponca City, OK! Oh my gosh, it couldn't rain without trying to kill you. A storm came up while Kyle (my hubby) was at work and I thought it was going to take out the whole RV. Anyway, ya'll keep smiling and stay happy and I'll be following till ya'll either quit or I croak! 👍

[@janicerager8525]

Perhaps you can use driveway markers to mark your property lines. Here in Ohio we use them during the winter--they are bright orange and are 4 ft or 5 ft heights fiberglass.

[@Colorista_1]

Good evening! I too am totally ignorant to those poisonous plants. I have lived my entire life in Colorado. I never had to worry about plants. I did have to worry about things like a bull elk in rut, mountain lion, bears, and the list goes on. Last year my husband and I moved to Georgia. Talk about culture shock!! I need to learn what those plants like myself. You two are not the lone strangers in that regard. Have a very blessed day!!

[@rosew.1728]

I really enjoy following your journey. You’re such a fun couple. Your land is gorgeous. I love walking in the woods. My arthritis prevents me from doing that anymore. I felt like I was right there in your forest as you rode back to meet your surveyor. May God continue to bless you in your future endeavors.

[@gingerromas9193]

My husband and I really enjoy watching both of you and all your family And friends🌞😄

[@camillahudson3974]

Where I was growing up I was taught, as for poison oak and ivy is, "Leaves of three, Leave it be". I too am highly allergic to them. Every spring my neighbors use to do spring cleaning of their yard and would burn these plants. The smoke would come down to our house and I would get it all in my lungs. Spent a lot of time at the doctors. Never saw them growing as big as you have there. Our's just grow at ground level. Take care K&S. 🧟

[@kevinzueger8837]

Great news on the H-2/0, that's gotta be a HUGE relief! Some states allow "farmers" to use chemical weed control not usually available to the general public, check your local "farm supply" store for the best product to rid your property of the poisonous plants. Even small steps are progress, enjoy you two!

[@vgil1278]

KYLE--But you are the stewards of your land-you don't want to spray or apply poison on your land. It sticks around forever and could give you cancer or other problems. Also it can kill wildlife. The natural, organic way usually takes longer, but doesn't poison anyone.

[@suecollins5174]

Buy a bar of fels-naptha soap. When you come in from being around poison ivy shower with it. It's a good idea to soap yourself down three times rinsing each time. That will remove the oil from contact with the plant. My son and I are very allergic to poison ivy and that is what the pediatrician told me years ago. The soap is an old-time laundry soap that is strong enough to remove the oil.

[@EvaVilla-pm5mv]

I just found out my sister has poison ivy on the back part of her property and my son was back there walking around. Can’t wait to see you guys out there for good

[@sandiblake8840]

If you do get into poison ivy, if you have any jewel weed on your property it is good for easing the itch. It also helps if you get into stinging nettle.

[@lolameitler6083]

Glad you didn't get the poison ivy. Love watching progress

[@jerriewyatt905]

There’s a date code stamped on the skirt of the pressure tank… those tanks if kept out of the weather, have a pretty good lifespan.. they’re warranted for 5 years on the bladder if you have the correct pressure on the tank (for a new tank..) poison oak and ivy will climb like crazy .. I’m also allergic to it..don’t touch the hatchet blade with your bare hands.. the worse case of poison oak outbreak I had, was when I was a kid.. my dad burned brush that had poison oak in it .. I got it off of his clothes.. where he sat down on a chair etc.. I sat near him or on the same chair.. my face swelled until my eyes were swollen shut .. it was horrible..

[@brendabrandenburg939]

If you wash off with Dawn Dishwash after being exposed to posion ivy the degreaser in Dawn will wash away all posion oils. Also when you get the camper to your land, build a shelter over the camper making the roof wide enough tlo act as a covered patio and it will allow the breeze going on to of the camper and the shade from the shelter to lower the temperature in the camper. I hope I made sense as fell and fractured my right humurs near my shoulder and I am taking morphine for the pain.

[@vickiemeisinger9632]

I’m so glad you guys finally got your survey. How exciting for you both!! Life always is a roller coaster ride…That is what keeps it interesting. It doesn’t matter whether you live on a farm or whether you are building a house or fighting a disease every day is a challenge and the next day is a reprieve( hopefully), and if you have the attitude of I’m gonna roll with whatever comes my way and keep smiling and I can persevere through it, like you guys have been doing, you’ll get through whatever happens. My advice is don’t make a list or at least if you do keep it short so that you don’t feel disappointed or discouraged that you’re not getting things done like you wanted. When I was younger I always made a list and they were long and then I would take that list and mark off what I got done and I would carry everything forward and add to it …Consequently I was beating myself up trying to be superwoman

[@TracySmith-xy9tq]

I used to take walks in the woods when I was a kid, so I learned how to identify poison ivy early on. Thankfully, I've not had a case of it since I was 12. You should wear long sleeves with your gloves while chopping it

[@kickapoocraftycat]

I had a doctor tell me that once you have developed an issue with poison ivy you can get out of the air during pollination. You can also get it off the animals fur after they have run through it. Be very careful. Kyle.

[@judithgillis267]

that is very true.also if someone is weedwacking the oils are airborne you can get it pluse if someone is burning it you can get it.

So exciting!!! You all have so much exploring to do. Beautiful back here ... I watch the Walkers and love following them! Glad you have more subscribers. You have learned so much Kyle and you make it easy to understand. Yep, poison ivy, the old saying is ... three leaves, let it be ... cut the vine at the base of the tree and it will die, don't touch it. no, never burn it. I'd love to see the first trip! All the best, so excited and happy for you all. Love your new puppy also. wipe in the grass and sanitize at the camper. That is evil stuff! Wow, so sorry for the damage. That is good news, as long as you are careful the rash can be avoided.

[@guynethdailey1759]

Even though the ivy dies, you can still catch it from the dead vine. The oil remains on it. Also, you can get it from petting Nala if she gets in it.

[@jingerburkett7871]

We had that kind of property. We cut a 6 inch gap in the vines if not they will still be actively living. So happy for y'all!

[@michaelwaddeington5307]

Guys, in reference to the poison vines growing up the trees, the best thing to do is get a machete and cut a 2" gap in the vine. That will kill all of it in the tree. I suggest a machete because as apposed to your hatchet you'll be a bit farther away from the vine which when cut can splash you with sap. Kyle, you are not the one to do this. This stuff on the ground, though I hate doing this, must be sprayed and it will take a couple of years to clear it. The other thing you can do is get the goats up there. They love to eat poison ivy. If putting the goat to clearing it out, DO NOT spray it but just cut the vines and let the goats do the rest. Good luck. In my case, I'm immune to it. Mike

[@shirleyalavez7387]

You'll get it done soon, I'm sure! I knew you Kevin brother. Saw post when you were helping your Dad.

The flags “you” placed will be hard to find and I had many of my flags come off. I would say to get the wooden stakes or I used rebar ( but it has a price). You are doing such good work and don’t want you to have to do it again. As when you need to find your property lines you need to find them and not search for days (like I had to do). Also just put a project list together and you can reorganize the list as you go. Don’t let the list keep you frustrated, as WE ALL have long lists. But you will have such a good feeling as you can check things off the list. ( don’t just delete them) . You need to see them as you do them. Ha ha You are doing such a good job! God Bless you!

You will not be free from poison ivy or any of them, it does not stop in the winter! Since your cutting wood to burn, there is still sap in the vine. I know from experience you can even get it from your dog if they run though it. If your down wind from the smoke when your burning it you can catch it from that too. If I touch Christmas tree, I get poison Sumac,scrubs etc. I am 74 years old, I grew up on a farm. This all happened to me. Good Luck!!!

I am glad you got your survey done, Get some poison ivy spray, If the animals get into the poison ivy and get oils on them and you touch them you will get poison ivy!! God bless you guys stay safe and take care
