At least our bodies build up a resistance to continued poison ivy intensity, at least that is what my brother an I decided when we were trapping animals for fur selling.Life is a constant challenge. RED M.

I always read that a person does not build up an immunity to poison ivy. I catch very easy and have never been able to go near it. I am no expert in the study of it though. But i am an expert in getting it! lol!!!!

I got it something horrible as a kid, even hospitalized, and then nothing for 20 + years. In the last 5 I had some splotches but it never itched.[8|] I've done a lot of tee shirt wearing removal but did wear long pants.Maybe that doesn't mean anything.

I use 'Tech-Nu' when I first notice signs of it. That helps keep it in check very well. The blotches still last for 2-3wks, but I usually keep it from spreading alot.

I have it now. Took a spill down on a hill and landed right in it. I'm too clumsy.

When I was a teenager, I helped a friend clean around his father's pecan trees for some extra money. The trunks were covered in it, and we were just grabbing it and pulling it off. It tore me up bigtime. I learned my lesson though and now I can spot that mess a mile away.

Mine was poison oak. This is the first year for me experiencing this. Different rash then poison ivy.
