RU can be effective on most soft stemmed weeds, grasses. The "woodier" the stem, the tougher it is to kill. A strong mix of RU will probably work, but if it were me, I would use Remedy. Remedy is designed for woody stemmed vegetation and vines and it would probably take less to kill the PI/PO.
Remember, its the oil in PI/PO that causes the itch and even though the plant is dead, the oil will remain for months, even a year or two. So don"t handle it without gloves. Better yet, don"t handle it at all. Use a rake or other tool to pull it off trees, etc.
Whatever you do, do not burn it. The oil will be in the smoke and on whatever the smoke gets on. If you breathe the oil laden smoke, it will make you very, very sick. Most likely, you and every one else who breathed it will wind up in the hospital.
RU is good for fence lines if the vegetation is mostly grass and weeds.
