How to Get Rid of Ivy

The ivy is all behind and at the side of Charley and Lily's shed and some is coming through the gap at the top of the shed. Just found Charley behind the shed, how he got through the barrier I don't know but now I'm worrying that he might have eaten some. When I asked John, the man who does jobs for me, if he could deal with it he said it was coming from next door and thought it best to leave it. That was months ago, so now it's much thicker. Oh bother!
 
My buns eat the large leaved ivy that grows around the shrubbery and it has never bothered them. If you can't get to the root of the plant to put weedkiller on it, the only other option is to pull it back as much as possible. Ivy isn't too bad to get off if it is attatched to something flat..just use a knife to detach the suckers then pull it off.
