Wash off with Dawn dish soap immediately after going out detecting in such areas. Poison ivy, oak and sumac are oil that gets on your skin. Dawn is the best. It may not get it all, but it takes care of a lot. Also, wash clothes separately with it. Regular washing won’t cut the oil and it then spreads to other articles of clothing. May help a little bit in the recovery process now, but best is to take care of it right away.

Trust me I know lol just too stubborn to learn lol

Hmm note to self stay out of poison oak when metal detecting. Oh the misery I feel right now. Though I don't heed that note well as not my first rodeo with the stuff. My body hates it makes me feel sick on top of the rashes and itching. Why must gold rush areas have this terrible plant lol.

Don't feel bad....im in the same boat !! One of my best spots is in a poison wood forest. If I get it to bad I have to get a steroid shot.

I had it so bad one time after week I couldn’t take it anymore. My body wouldn’t kick it so I went to the doctor. They said they’d give me a steroid shot after the shot. I went to leave. The nurse said no you need to stay just in case you have a reaction so she shuts the door and leaves the room in about 20 seconds later I start getting dizzy I stand up reach for the door, barely getting it open yelling help help and all the nurses ran in they had to put cold packs and ice to keep me conscious.

I've tried it before and it didn't work for me. Maybe I didn't use it soon enough after exposure.

11 pound Khaos sleeping with his 6 year old "brother" in my spot. Tigger, the blacker cat puts up with Khaos attacking him. Playtime all the time!

I've learned to leave it be. For whatever reason all that stuff seems to make it worse. All the cool relic areas all have poison oak lol so I'm screwed

Sounds like Black Barts areas.

I lied. There is a pic. The guys played poker and the gals played Pictionary. We laughed so hard at times. Several times the guys told us to settle down. I still have no idea what this gal was drawing. Lol
