Poison ivy, whatcha do?

Wash them in Dawn dish soap with some backing soda mixed in. Then air dry outside for a few days.

Also too add: use surgical gloves while doing it.....

$47 at the CVS here in Michigan.... I agree it is one of the best solutions but I usually prefer to suffer for 2 weeks LOL!!

Still cheaper than a Dr's visit and it works..... Usually within 3-4 days....

Zanfel no scratching no bleach no problems.....

Yep. You'll never go to anything else after you use Zanfel. Pricey, but it's worth it's weight in gold, IMO.

I can roll in it and not get maybe a bump or two. Poison sumac is a whole other story. I swell within a day.

Better yet get some of those rubber gloves for doing dishes or cleaning bathrooms which go halfway up your forearms.

Another nod to Dawn after exiting the woods or any place you may feel you were in contact with it. Another BIG nod to the Zanfel. FWIW, I believe our CVS or Rite Aid had a generic version of the Zanfel. It is in the $35-37 ballpark I believe.
