How do you get rid of ivy?
Hi guys,
My new outdoor enclosure is just about ready to go. A bit later than planned, due to a fractured foot, but better late than never! However I've noticed that ivy keeps popping up. I dig it up at the root, but more keeps appearing. Do you know of any tort friendly ways of getting rid of it (hopefully permanently)? Thanks.

Thanks both. I will just keep pulling it up and hope it doesn't come back.

It doesn't appear that photo bucket is working at the moment and I haven't set up any other system to share photos. But if you have instagram head to my account @gemjam1987 and check out the most recent pictures of the outdoor enclosure.
I will be adding more features and plants in the future, so any suggestions are welcome. It is about 3m x 3m so a good size which will hopefully last. Just need to set up an entrance into the greenhouse, where there will be an insulated hide.
