Summary
Poison Ivy (Toxicodendron radicans) Is commonly known as Eastern poison ivy or poison ivy, is an allergenic Eastern North American flowering plant in the genus Toxicodendron. Poison ivy rash is a type of allergic contact dermatitis caused by an oily resin called urushiol, found in the leaves, stems and roots of poison ivy, poison oak and poison sumac. This resin is very sticky, so it easily attaches to your skin, clothing, tools, equipment and pet's fur. All parts of the plant carry this oil, so do not touch it. The oil can be removed by vigorous washing of the skin and laundering of apparel.
