the old method
of poison ivy oil removal was using a really strong "oil breaking down laundry soap"....the bar was tan...(stil available) smelly like pine sol is... and its good for washing your hands....the oil can stay in dugarees for years if not washed ...especially if you were weed wacking and getting poison ivy sap/oil on your pant legs... you then have to soak them outdoors and use a scrub brush to really penetrate the fibers. then wash with real strong laundry soap. even washing your hands doesnt clean them of bacteria unless you use a brush to clean out all the nooks and crannies of your skin.same with clothes.

the thing with poison ivy oil ...is that it penetrates your epidermial layer like nothin... and gets done to the subcutaneously layer that's bright red "seen only when you cut yourself bad". then the oil generates a response there and it creates a sore to expell the oil back up and out....of you... so thats why...it can get re-deposited back onto your skin, and transfered to other undesirable areas.
