Is there any way you can call the Health Dept? Or Animal Control? I watched on Animal cops the other day they gave the people less then a week to clean up their yard.


That's so funny you post that pic of the Sumac Karen. We have a clearing out behind our hospital and a ton of that grows there and my boss wanted it so bad b/c she thought it was sooo pretty.
lol

Read her this:

Poison Sumac oils (called urushiol) cause allergic skin reactions in nearly 85%
of people exposed to the plant. Symptoms can begin within a few hours after contact, or can arise between 2 to 5 days later. The rash of poison sumac typically occurs between 24 to 48 hours after contact. Each individual may experience symptoms differently; the following are the most frequent
symptoms of poison sumac:

Rash in the form of blisters (sometimes in a line)
Blisters can eventually break open, ooze, and then dry or crust over
Swelling in the area of contact
Red blotches that can be raised or flat
Intense itching
