Poison Ivy

I would swear that my neighbors are growing a Poison Ivy tree in their backyard. I imagine that they never actually use that corner of their yard and had NO IDEA what was growing there (and spreading into my yard).

Now I *know* why it is sometimes called a hairy vine. The climbing roots actually look like tangled human hair.

Now, the question is, am I still immune to poison ivy?

Better go shower.

remember to warn me if I ever go into your back yard - I'm not at all immune

Either a) I am still immune, b) I protected my skin adequately, or c) what I took out wasn't actually poison ivy.

I think a) is most likely.

There is none in my yard anymore. I also took out a fair amount in their yard.

Don't worry too much, the location is not where we actually use our yard.
