GOT THAT ITCH?

Come in contact with poison ivy, poison oak or poison sumac during spring landscaping duty? Look no further than your kitchen cupboards to prevent the spread of the itchy rash. Uroshiol oil is the active ingredient that coats the leaves of the plants and eventually ends up on your skin. Soap designed specifically to break up oil such as dish detergents like Dawn, Joy or Palmolive is your best bet at preventing this irritating skin affliction.
