# Poison Ivy Removal in Lexington, MA.

Lexington yards mix colonial-era stone walls with postwar neighborhoods that have grown into real shade, plus a backbone of conservation meadows and the bikeway corridor running through town. All of it is good habitat for poison ivy, and none of it is a good place for spray. I remove the plant by hand on Lexington properties, full root systems, bagged and gone the same day.

§ 01 · Local Field Notes

## Where poison ivy shows up in Lexington.

1.  01 
    
    Colonial stone walls.  Wall bases hold roots that have run undisturbed for decades, out of reach of any mower. 
    
2.  02 
    
    Bikeway and trail backyards.  Properties along the Minuteman corridor and town trails pick up growth from the unmanaged margin, usually starting at the fence. 
    
3.  03 
    
    Mature-shade neighborhoods.  Yards planted in the fifties now have real canopy, and vines climbing the older trees at the lot edges. 
    
4.  04 
    
    Conservation meadow abutters.  Lots along town conservation land inherit seedlings each season from ground nobody treats. 
    

§ 02 · Engagement

## The same engagement as Weston.

Every project follows the engagement I run at home in Weston. You send photos through the form on my homepage. If it's a fit, I schedule the on-site [Poison Ivy Survey](/uv-survey). I walk the property, document every active zone, and deliver a custom map with a [fixed-price removal proposal](/proposal). Removal is hand-pulling: leaves, vines, crowns, and roots, bagged and hauled off-site the same day, with a 30-day return visit included. There is no travel surcharge anywhere in my standing service area.

§ 03 · Method Fit

## Why hand-pulling fits Lexington.

A sprayed vine on a stone wall stays rash-capable for years after it dies, exactly where kids climb and gardeners kneel. Hand extraction removes the hazard itself. I work vine by vine along walls and fences, protect the plantings around each zone, and haul every fragment off-site.

§ 04 · Reference Desk

## Common questions from Lexington.

Q. 

Do you charge extra to come to Lexington?

+ − 

No. Lexington is part of my standing service area. Same process, same standard of work, no travel surcharge.

Q. 

The growth is coming from the path behind our fence. What can you do?

+ − 

I clear everything rooted on your side of the documented property line and document what's rooted beyond it. You'll know exactly what was removed, what remains on the far side, and what to expect from it.

Send me the worst spot. I'll take it from there.

The 2026 calendar is closed. This season's schedule is fully committed, and I am not taking on new surveys or removals for the remainder of the year. The calendar reopens in spring 2027.
