Poison Ivy...?
Poison ivy plants produce an oily toxicant called urushiol , which is capable of causing severe skin irritations. Severity of reaction to the poison ivy oil can vary greatly from person to person. The transfer of this oil to the skin can occur through contact with the leaves, stems, fruit, roots or flowers of the poison ivy. Direct contact with the plant is usually the method of exposure, although an individual can also be exposed by handling clothing, tools, objects or animals that have become contaminated with the oil. Individuals can also be exposed to the urushiol oils through the burning of the poison ivy plants. The burning of the plants emits particles that carry the oil into the air. Coming in contact with the smoke can cause severe cases of poisoning. Persons who suspect they have inhaled this smoke should contact a doctor immediately.
