I am sure you know how nasty the sap is. Don't injure yourself with the sap when you remove it.

Mike have you dealt with the moth vine at this location? or should some-0ne for PCS go out?

It is still there but not yet flowering so there is no haste. I can't use tools for a few days so you can ask PCS if you like. They could also tackle the blue passionflower from there to the gate to make the trip worthwhile.
