WHY REMOVE POISON IVY?
3 out of 4 people suffer from mild to severe allergic dermatitis (poison ivy skin rash) when they come into direct contact with any of the urushiol of the poison ivy, poison oak, poison sumac plant – even those who have previously seemed immune. It is only a question of time and frequency of repeated exposure to this plant, that after awhile you develop poison ivy allergy that is best known for its awful dreaded itching, blistering, ooozing rash.
