Best thing to do on the greenbelt to get rid of the vines is to wait for Fall. Â Get you a small dixie cup and pour in some round up. Â Take it out to the vine, and cut the vine back to the ground. Â Leave enough of the vine to stick into the Round Up. Â The vine will suck the Round Up right to root and kill it.This method is the only one I have found for getting rid of poison ivy as well.
@Fallon: Unfortunately, the base of these vines grow thick and woody and look just like a small tree. You almost have to do like we did, trace the vine back to it's origin (it's base). If it's more than a year or so old, you won't be able to bend the base root portion remaining. We dug the roots up.I also had a small Chinese Tallow in our backyard. I cut it down, but the root base would send up new shoots each year. I bought some "Stump Killer" and that finally killed it. You drill a hole (or holes) in the base root and poor in the Root Killer. I'm sure it would work on the vines as well.
