My husband and I just moved into a house in Seagoville, TX, and the prior owners had not cleaned any of the weeds and brush around the house for several years. My husband went out and hacked away bushes and cleared out about 6-8 inches of leaves, dead branches and decomposing growth. He found large bushes of poison oak, with thick stems, along with roots that seem to be everywhere! He rented a roto-tiller, and turned the dirt so he could plant grass, and now there seems to be little plants coming up. We want to plant a garden too around the fences, but first need to find a way to rid the yard of poison oak and other weeds, without hurting the new lawn that is starting to come up. My husband is highly allergic to the poison oak, and suffered for a month after clearing the weeds. WE NEED HELP!!!
