Hello Tom! I’m really excited that you took the time for such an excellent response! Thank you for your interest. You are right, it is very hard and even dangerous to remove poison ivy if you are allergic. The Maryland Extension Service actually has an entire publication dedicated to ideas on how to remove it! It’s a good read. https://extension.umd.edu/sites/extension.umd.edu/files/_docs/locations/frederick_county/MG%20Article-06-03-13%20Protecting%20Yourself%20From%20Poison%20Ivy%20by%20M%20Kraus.pdf
