Wasn't sayin I built an immunity to it or had a special shot. Just used to get it all the time just by mowin the grass at the old house but now I don't and I know I've been in contact with it quite often

kerrydw.....this crap has been torment for me all my life....and I'm 61. I've tried everything thought of to get rid of it....nothing works except a shot of Cortizone.......period. However,.....in order to keep from getting it do this.....after you've been exposed or even think maybe you have.....which translates to being in the woods in summer.....get to a shower as soon as you possibly can. Take a shower and wash thoroughly ALL parts....I mean all very well with soap and scrub yourself. Get your contaminated clothes out of reach and washed as soon as you can. Do not touch your dogs after they've been in the woods unless you wash your hands immediately after you touch them. Do these things and you will be free of this stuff......but you have to do this every time.....good luck.

if u know your going to come in contact with it then keep antihistamine in your blood so your body will fight any allergys u may have .. i make my own soap bars it has oak mill, salt,sand,gain exrta bright, benadryl gel its the clear gel . thats my own bars that work for me as soon as i get home i take antihistamine pills an take a cold shower an wash with my bar.. {dont use hot water} oh where i make a mistake is touching my dogs to much when loading them in the dog box an out .. thats how easy it is for me to brake out.

I feel your pain man,.....been there and got the t-shirt. I've had it so bad that the doctor even made a face when he saw me.....lol That's one main reason I just don't hardly get in the woods in summer......that and chiggers. Them chiggers will run, skip, jump and even pole vault to get on me......it's insane how well they like me. Good luck man.
