poison ivey,oak and sumac

I writing this with the people that cut trails in mind. With spring here the lovely poison ivey, oak and sumac have arrived too. I have found about these poisons the hard way. That when a person crushes the leaf or vine it realeases a surum that is clear and odorless. 2 days ago when working in the yard I had encountered the stuff, I had my gloves on and did not think much of it. I had touched my chin while working. The nexted day my chin was irratated and I did not think much of it. I put my gloves on and went to work. Because of my chin I touched my face with the gloves. Hence I spread the stuff all over the right side of my face. If I had done something as simple as rinsing my gloves and tools the night before I would have a simple case of poison ivey.Since I did not I had to spend $40.00 to go get a shot. Plus half of my face is swollen. So take and extra pair of gloves when cutting trails or rinse hands regular. Wash tools and clothes when finished.
