They sure do love New England. My south acreage is full of it. When I have to work there, I change clothes often. I get a rash from it but for me, it is not debilitating. I feel sorry for you guys who do get it bad.

It's all about that moment when metal that hasn't seen the light of day for generations frees itself from the soil and presents itself to me.

I am one of the lucky ones! Cheesy

Have never been allergic to ivy or oak.
My doc says to be careful, I can get in it one day and find I am suddenly allergic.
Going on 68 and don't need a dose now, so I will be watchful.

Smart.
Decades ago I was a summer camp counselor and they (management) told us to be careful of kids that said they were immune and rub the stuff all over themselves. Their immunity can slip, without notice and they could be hospitalized

I've also heard that. You can be immune for years and one day...poof! I read some where that the plant is now growing larger and stronger due to warmer climate. I don't know about that but I don't remember seeing it in the sizes and quantities I do now.

hi all, is the species of oak you have over there different to english oak?, over here oak is only mildly toxic and then only by ingestion, its more inedible rather than poisonous.
i know you have things over there named after things in the old country, but they are actually different, like our ivy which is harmless its a nuisance but harmless, american poison ivy is on the invasive plant lists here, like japanese knotweed and wild bamboo, if its found its eradicated, must be very nasty.

Hi sinclairuser. Good question. Poison oak is NOT a species of oak or any other tree. Rather it is a very close relative of the american poison ivy. It gets its name because the leaflets remind people of certain species of oak trees.

Because of the way it grows, and because it usually (but not always) is at digging level, it catches lots of diggers in North America unawares. The result is a painful case of contact dermatitis.

thanks BA, i understand now, had a feeling it would be something like that but i did not know for sure.
we have problems with ticks at the moment, its catching quite a few out, you only see deer ticks very occasionally and then its normally pets that suffer, but this year we have those tiny grass ticks like you get in the states, the dept i work for have warned us and given us plastic removal tools.
but US detectorists encounter them often i understand.
