more poison ivy

[Guest guest]

For those not familiar with the jewelweed plant, or unable to find it, the

common garden plants Impatiens or Garden Balsam are very close cousins to

jewelweed. I have found those plants - along with the very common plantain to

be

pretty effective in controlling the rash.

There is also a homeopathic remedy called Rhus Tox which, when taken once a

week, helps many people get through the poison ivy season rash-free.

I have also found aromatherapy to work very well. Jewelweed too.
