Newton is thirteen villages of close neighbors, mature trees, and yards where every square foot gets used: play sets, garden beds, dog runs, patios. On a lot like that there is no such thing as an out-of-the-way corner, and a broad spray program makes no sense in a forty-foot backyard. I remove poison ivy from Newton properties by hand, precisely, one root system at a time. § 01 · Local Field Notes ## Where poison ivy shows up in Newton. 1. 01 Fence lines between neighbors. Vines travel property lines, and the growth on your side usually has roots on both. 2. 02 Garden edges and foundation beds. Poison ivy hides among plantings in exactly the spots you weed barehanded. 3. 03 Woods-adjacent lots. Properties near Webster Woods, Cold Spring, and the aqueduct corridors inherit seedlings from the wooded margins. 4. 04 Tree bases and garage lines. Mature street trees and old garages carry climbing vines that have been there longer than the current owners. § 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 Newton. Small, intensively used yards are where precision matters most. Spray drift on a Newton lot lands on your neighbor's tomatoes or your own perennials, and a killed vine left on the fence stays hazardous for years. I extract the plant itself, protect everything around it, and take the debris with me the same day. § 04 · Reference Desk ## Common questions from Newton. Q. Do you charge extra to come to Newton? + − No. Newton is part of my standing service area. Same process, same standard of work, no travel surcharge. Q. The vine is on our shared fence. Whose problem is it? + − I work on your side of the documented property line. I'll clear everything rooted on your side, document anything rooted on your neighbor's, and give you a plain account of both, which many clients simply hand across the fence. 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.
