You are gonna need an ocean of calamine lotion…

It looks like Japanese Aralia berries are edible, but I’m good. Let me know about that poison ivy ambrosia though 👨‍🔬
 
Poison ivy is supposed to have berries but I have never seen them. Not sure if they have urushiol in or in them but I ain’t gonna try them if I find them. I think I have immunity to my local strain after 20+ years here. I used to exterminate the poison ivy in the woods behind my house because my kids would get the rash pretty badly. I was using really bad stuff though and for a couple of years after blasting an area with the chemical, nothing would grow. I stopped that about 10 years ago and the ivy is coming back…
 
Yep My wife gets it just looking at it.
She has to get a shot from Doc as soon as we see any appear on her. She has even gotten it from petting the dog after he frolicked through a patch.
We have 3 urushriol carriers in my house. Used to get it all the time on my hands from petting the pets.
