There is a tiny wildflower sprouting and running now.I saw it in a wildflower book and said its name was "cling"..It arrives real early in spring, grows fast,blooms and is gone till next year..Gather it and let it dry..In about a week it will resemble hay or close to it ? Keep it dry and if needed for poison oak take a good handfull and put in boiling water for appx. 5 minutes. Strain if you wish and let cool..Drink 4 or 5 ozs. and save a glass for 24 hours later..It will cure you.. Not bad to me to drink..No after effects..Makes me think of un-sweetened tea..My late mom had several people that just came to her instead of Dr. for treatment, and it s free, but couple or 3 more weeks, poof, it s gone till next spring

You have two choices ......

Go to the local hardware, Tractor Supply or Lowe's and get a jug of Roundup for Poison Ivy & Tough Brush. After a few days of no rain, wait until late afternoon, then spray the poison oak plant. Repeat for two more days. It should be dead in three or four weeks.

Hire a professional.

1wildflower I had a similar problem one time and finally found that there was a large vine running up a large pine tree that was hiding the foliage from view. When I found that big one I carefully cut the stalk and sprayed roundup on the stump and my problem was taken care of. You may find the stuff growing from bird deposits from time to time but if you can get rid of the source it will make a difference.

The best way to clear poison oak or ivy is two goats. I bought to to clear about 1/10 of an acre of it on a plot of land I bought and it was gone in less than two weeks. I would be more than happy to bring my goats to take care of it for you if you cover the cost and buy me a bag of feed or something. Just pm me.

An old Indian trick was to swallow a few leaves of poison oak and build up immunity to it. I have seen this done. Disclaimer: I do not recommend this and anything I ever posted on here is for entertainment purposes only.

This is true but they only ate the small leaves when the vine just started budding out in early spring.

I think someone told me they bought a goat and it got rid of it; however, I don't know if the goat survived.
