Evidently you don't have to live out in the country to get poison ivy in your gardens! My hubby broke out with the typical blisters all over a couple of weeks ago when he helped me get rid of clippings from my herb garden. Didn't see anything then that looked like poison ivy. But in my flower bed, there it is! I've never broken out yet in my lifetime so don't know if I'm allergic to it. I plan to put on my nitrile gloves that go up to my underarms, bag the weeds and then bag my gloves, take a shower outside and change clothes when done! Any other suggestions? I have workmen in my house, which is totally torn up at the moment, getting new floors put in, so can't get to the washer for a while. Janet
