This poison ivy along my street
(lemmy.world)
It runs all the way down, flanking both sides. I pretend it's a moat for protection. So lush in some places it's difficult to not touch with your car as you drive along.
Man, I just weed whacked some poison ivy last week and some aerosolized plant bits stuck to any exposed flesh on me.
I’ve learned a powerful lesson. And a lot of self-discipline trying not to scratch
Pro-tip, switch to left-handed whacking when there's poison Ivy. It then flings the noxious juice away from you instead of at your legs. Long-pants also help. And, if you know for sure you screwed up and got some on you, immediately go inside, take a shower, and wash it off with soap.
Are we not doing phrasing in Lemmy?
I just reread my comment... Boy, it's almost like I did it on purpose, but I didn't!
Use technu!
I use it with success all the time. Have to dry off with a towel ("scrape" your skin dry with the towel, immediately toss towel in washer)
