Poison Ivy,Sumac,and Oak

I work for an electrical contractor as an electrician, Recently work has slowed up so my boss tries to keep us busy even if the work coming in isnt enough to send everyone out on jobs. Well since I am the more recent employee/low man on the totem pole he asked me if I would mind pulling weeds around the shop! I didnt mind since I would be getting paid for my time anyways, but little did I know that the weeds were poison of just about all kinds you can think of now both of my entire arms are totally FU**** lol I have poison all over them and it itches like crazy! Well my grandmother told me about an old home remedy to dry it up and get rid of it, put bleach on it well it does dry it up but I should warn you to be prepared to have your arms not only itch but when you apply the bleach be ready to SCREAM because it burns like hell! Just thought I should share this with you guys in case you ever get poison! It works at drying the poison almost instantly if you can stand the pain! :twisted:

I know exactly how you feel. I get poison oak/ivy, so easily. I have to go to the doctor and get a shot and pills to get rid of mine. When i say i feel your pain, believe me I do. Hope you get rid of it soon, stay strong. The thing that helped me not get it again was a simple saying..... Leaves of 3 leave them be. knowing what they look like is the best defense. I watched a couple utube vids and researched some pic to recognize the weed/plant and it helped me.
