Not Fun. And one day, somebody’s gonna die on Gumby or a Kong. Other than that, though, she’s fairly safe 😉

I really needed something to smile about!

We don’t get poison ivy, but the processionary caterpillar is abundant at certain times of the year and needs to be avoided by dogs and bipeds.

I’m trying to think of anything that my dogs could be doing to try and kill me but I can’t think of anything which either means I am safe or they have gone all secret commando on my ass and I will never see it coming and they will not be suspected!

Other than covering yourself and/or your dog head to toe, I know of no other way to prevent things like this!

No better place to leave them except doorways and main walkways, you know. Haven’t had poison ivy or oak for years but always used calamine lotion to calm it down. Welcome back and feel better soon.

Hope you are doing OK. I’m extremely allergic to poison ivy and we have quite a bit of it around here with the lakes and all. I have to get a prescription, because nothing else really works after a get it.

I have used Fels Naptha laundry soap to wash off the oils and rinse in the hottest water possible. It seems to work, unless I don’t know that I’ve made contact, then I’m screwed. lol

I know how awful poison ivy is and hope you feel better soon.

Ha! I can’t claim to be a huge comic book nerd, but when I was little the old school Adam West Batman was my favourite TV show!

I do have a soap that I get from Milos, and you wash the area with that and pat it dry. It helped my husband the last time he had PI and like you he gets is bad. There is also a wash you can use and if you wash with it within 20 minutes of exposure it will prevent the rash. But I don’t know if off the top of my head and it won’t help you now anyhow. Once husband had it so bad he needed steroids to calm it.
