Information Media Zone: What Should I Do If I am Exposed to a Poison Plant?

If you think you may have been exposed to a poison plant:

Remove your clothes.
Wash all exposed areas with cool running water. Use soap and water if possible. Be sure to clean under fingernails. In the woods, the water of a running stream can be an effective cleanser.
Wash clothing and all gardening tools, camping gear, sports equipment, and other objects that came into contact with the plants.
Bathe pets exposed to the plants.
