that you take steps to isolate the area you have it on your body

since you didn't specify....where you have it..

no need to explain further...

just know that you can scratch it in your sleep

and then transfer it where you definitely don't want it if your not careful that is... know what i mean?

so wear a long sleaved shirt to bed or wrap gauze around the
infected area before going to bed....

and don't fool yourself into believing that you won't do that
because you sleep like a log or anything else...

bullet proof the area 's men or you'll pay dearly
======================================
as for the vines as soon as it's sunny buy round -up
and spray it real good if it's growing where you live...

you need 4 days of sun for the systemic to work well

i need several gallons of it myself...

Salty's product recommendation is more than likely excellent

but i always buy nutritional brewers yeast powder which is whats left over from making beer or the flakes at
the nearest health food store and make either some ice cream shakes with it or mix it into yogurt...and the flakes mix with milk real quick.. and make it taste real good...

when you start taking the brewers yeast , the poison Ivy Blisters stop in their tracks and dry up pretty fast... it has every B vitamin in it except b12
and clears up your skin like magic...good for kids with acne too

Never found anything as good as Tech Nu.

i hate this plant with a passion
if i even see a nearby tree
with a twenty year old vine
growing up it with a thick stalk
i grab the ole double bladed ax
thats extremely sharp and cut it.

the update...

just reading in my new April issue
farming Magazine that the reason why
poison Ivy is thriving is due to a RISE
in carbon dioxide levels that are making
much stronger healthier plants. The US
dept of agriculture says that the growth rate
for poison ivy has Doubled in the last 50 years.

and since....
it grows up trees too.. as a parasite
after several years the tree dies
so keep that in mind when you see a vine starting
to grow up your wonderful tree...

birds eat the blue poison IVY berries
and then pass the seeds spreading it
everywhere. KILL them vines
