Fucking covered in poison ivy rashes this time of year.

Take care. I'm immune to poison ivy and oak, but I've seen the brutality they can wreak 🫂💜
It means you are not allergic to the molecule that “poison” ivy and oak has. The molecule is harmless to us, but 80%+ of people are allergic to it for some unknown reasons 🐶🐾🤷♂️
Wild. I can wallow in the stuff.
Found it 🐶🐾🫡
Get Ivarest. Has saved me before.
Also, carry Tecnu Original Outdoor Skin Cleanser.. wash any area that’s touched the ivy or oak as soon as possible, and no rash forms, it’s incredible!
So, you've heard of the ice water baths right....
Replace it with isopropyl alcohol.
🤣
Ever try crushing up a jewel weed stalk and rubbing the juice on? Works pretty good
Jewel weed soap. I’m severely allergic to poison ivy. I also spend several hours a day working outside on the homestead. Every time a few blisters start to appear I wash the area with jewel weed soap, let the suds sit for a minute on the affected area. Instead of expanding and taking a couple weeks to clear up my poison ivy blisters dry up in a day or two.
Not good man, not good at all..
