Re: For those that have poison ivy....

Ok so I think I found the stuff...way too late but I think I found it







I am just not typically an outdoors person...just trying to garden...not a boyscout...never dealt with poison ivy before.

I was all in this stuff lol. I have tecnu so I think I'm going to heal then pull out the poison ivy wearing the appropriate clothes and washing everything thorough multiple times after the job

Well now that we have NDAlum's mystery solved, I believe we need to get to the bottom of how the hell THIS happened.

Nothing worse than poison ivy on your man parts.

Or maybe we don't want to know.

Just don't burn it! We are allowed to burn wood and what not on our property so I was burning some tree trimmings and threw some of the piles of weeds in there. Yeah, apparently you don't want to inhale the poison and it doesn't burn off..

I just have it on my arms and legs luckily and got a prescription for predisone, but it can potentially be fatal.

At the time, I didn't know I was burning it..

HAHA! Just remember to wash your hands BEFORE you pee when you're outside moving about in a patch of sketchy weeds.

DO NOT ever burn poison ivy. That stuff can get in your lungs and if you get it bad enough in there you can die as your lungs fill up with fluid. When I was in high school some kid and his dad were clearing a field and breathed in the vapors and the kid missed almost a month of school trying to recover from that.
