and so has Poison Ivy By Sarah R. April 30, 2019 Leaves of Three, Let it Be! This common rule might save you weeks of itching, pain, and overall discomfort. If you see any plant with three leaves, it’s best to leave it alone. Poison ivy also can grow on vines up trees and under the topsoil. When pulling up garden “weeds”, you may actually be uprooting poison ivy. Jennifer Hall made this exact mistake: “I have two things to say about poison ivy; One, it is imperative after gardening to bathe. Two, I was in utter pain after I came in contact with poison ivy! I spent loads of money on cream, and ointments and sprays. It was terrible!” As you can tell, poison ivy is not something that anyone would like to experience. Steps to Take If you think that you have come in contact with poison ivy; there are actions that you should take to prevent a more severe reaction or have the oil for longer than necessary. (1) Wash the area that you believe might have touched poison ivy. (2) Change clothes, and wash the ones that you were wearing when you were around the plant. (3) Wash your sheets if you slept in them after the incident; this way you are not spreading the oils even more every night. The crucial thing to remember is that it’s not the leaves of poison ivy that cause the pain and swelling, but the oil on the plant. The oils can live in effect for up to three days, so taking these steps is very important. The oil that comes off the foliage is called urushiol. It can be found on poison ivy, poison oak, and poison sumac. What Does Poison Ivy Look Like? Poison ivy has three leaves and generally isn’t more than a few inches tall(unless it's on a vine). The leaves all have lobes on the sides. It can commonly be confused with raspberry leaves, which are unlike poison ivy in the way that they are serrated. If you aren’t sure, it’s better safe than sorry.
