    Tree covered in poison ivy

    Broad spectrum of good options already listed. I used to be highly reactive - go to the hospital reactive (western medicine thinking would call that allergic). I found a method of clearing "allergies" called NAET, Nambudribauds Allergy Elimination Technique. Now I can be around it some and...

    Hey everyone, I am doing some basic yard work like pruning trees and cutting small branches. At first, I thought any chainsaw would be fine, but I learned quickly that picking the best chainsaw for cutting trees really makes a big difference, even for light work. I am not an expert, just a...

    Wash within an hour, preferably less. I have not got it in years doing it that way. Other than my sisters friendly dog rubbing it on me.

    Hot Hot water relieves the itch for a few hours, IME.

    So you get paid to do a cut and leave on this tree, start climbing up, ride it down without making a cut; do you still get paid?

    Chipping PI sounds like having a death wish, to me :D.

    Tree covered in poison ivy

    I'm like Scott. No longer than 5-6 hour exposure. Wash my own clothes. Long sleeves. Gloves. Might get a couple annoying pimples of the shat. Kill the itch with aspirin and or benadryl and move on. Im careful not to breath smoke if burning. Prefer that over chipping the shat though. Or pack it...

    Full chisel 1/4” .043 cahin

    If using .043 1/4" you could machine a 9t rim to fit, if they still make the 9t.

    You're most likely a rare exception, Scott. Lucky you. Butch used to swear by taking Oral Ivy as a preventative. I have no idea if it actually works.

    Tree covered in poison ivy

    Wow. Thats extreme! I do bathe that evening, just as I always do, (I do scrub a bit more thoroughly), but aside from that, I do nothing. I’ve never even considered washing any of my gear because of it.

    A lot, lot more. Disposable outer layer. Preventative lotions. Washing immediately after with a wash cloth and soap scrubbing oil off. Wash all gear used.

    Tree covered in poison ivy

    They claim American Indians used to do that. Also read you can get it in your throat. Scary.

    Tree covered in poison ivy

    Just ignore it. It's all in your head.... Seriously, that's a tough question. I pay it no mind at all. I do put my own work clothes in the washer afterward, as my wife is very allergic to it. I know folks who have to go get a shot if they come in contact with it. I have, on many occasions, when...
