How do you remove ivy growing up the side of your house on your metal siding?
The ivy, when pulled from our house will leave a small residue of where the feet or roots adhered to the siding. We are going to cut the ivy toward the ground in a few weeks once a frost sets in. Once the ivy is cut, the ivy that is on the siding will die out but we don't think will just fall off of the house. How can we remove it easily and remove the stains it has caused on our siding?
Answer: The only way to get it iff is to pull it off and those holdtights they use to attach themselves are a (you know what). You'll have to get pain and paint where the stains are. And in the future trim them a few times a month to be sure they don't get to your siding again.
