First up: POISON OAK........Leaves of Three, Let 'Em Be!

This nasty weed can cause a severe, itchy rash if you happen to get the urushiol oil from its leaves, stems, or roots on your skin. Watch out for branches and shrubs when cycling, hiking, camping or walking your dog.

Be aware that the oils can also be floating in streams and make their way to our oceans after heavy rains. So be careful when mountain biking as the oils can splash on your legs, back and arms. When surfing, the floating oils can get on unprotected areas such as your neck, hands and feet.

It's also important to know that the oils can be transferred from you dog's fur, shoes or clothing. Clean urushiol oil from poison oak, poison ivy and poison sumac with Action Wipes as soon as possible. The no-rinse sudsing action combined with eucalyptus and tea tree oils will help prevent the oils from seeping into the skin and causing a rash*.

*This has not been medically proven.

Some people are extra sensitive to urushiol

and may develop a rash regardless of treatment.

Consult a physician should a rash develop.
