Pull it burn the pods, we call it wild cucumber it's nasty and invasive. Will choke out and kill trees and bushes. I don't know the real name.

Neither invasive nor anything to worry about, wild cucumber is a native, annual vine.  It may not have been around you, Jeff, but I've seen it here in NE Wisconsin all my life.  First frost takes it out.  Seeds will bring it back next year...and once again, it will not be anything to worry about.
Ask me about hybrid larch!

I actually like it where it is. It helps block the view back by my polebarn from the street.

Yeah, I like it too, especially knowing what it is and does.  I've heard,lol, that kids in the 1970's tried to get a buzz by eating the seeds.  Reports indicate a very bitter taste and little to no effects.

Have seen it near Iron River in the Western U.P. years back. Kids use to play war with the pods.
