Thank you so much for telling people NOT TO BURN poison ivy!! It can not only go into the lungs, but also affect your skin just like touching the plant does!! WONDERFUL video!!

@loue6563 5 лет назад

Yes my brother -n-law ended up in the hospital on a respirator because of burning wood that had poison ivy on it. He really could have died had he not gone to the hospital. Just a few minutes after he got there he could no longer breath on his own. Very scary. It also got into his eyes. They were swollen shut. His whole face was covered.

@marciahowell6693 5 лет назад

Thank you very much! This is the best description and viewing of poison ivy I have ever seen. Your time spent teaching is valued!

@louverousse9023 5 лет назад

When I was a little kid, my Dad taught me a simple thing : 1, 2 , 3 , don't touch me ! If the plant has 3 leaves, you don't take a chance and don't touch it . I can still hear my Dad showing me poison ivy and saying that little phrase, and believe me, almost 50 years later, I still remember it .

@komodoizzy 5 лет назад

THIS! This is the poison ivy tutorial I've wanted all my life.

@janetbusch6517 5 лет назад

Excellent video...I've been an outdoors person my entire life and sometimes still ll have trouble identifying it. Can you do a video on the other "poison" plants like oak and sumac? Thank you for helping us all !

@ae31860 5 лет назад

If I remember correctly one is a vine (poison ivy), one a bush and one is a small tree - I don't think they have overlapping places they grow. It would be good to find out!

@jlynnsonnier5124 5 лет назад

Janet Busch yes I agree, I believe poison oak also grows in Missouri but I have no idea how to identify it!

@anthonyrobertson7062 5 лет назад

Janet Busch I think these people live close to where I live. Here we have lots of poison ivy, but I have never seen poison sumac or poison oak that I know of around here.

@thinkitthrough8555 11 месяцев назад

This is the BEST poison ivy ID video on the web. WELL DONE!!

@argentorangeok6224 5 лет назад

Leaves of three, leave it be. Leaves of four, eat some more! Great video and thanks! I learned about the long petiole in the middle, but a lot of things still look like poison ivy.

@BB-ni9zj 5 лет назад

Best talk on poison ivy that I have ever heard. Thank you Sarah. Blessings!

@dianafesler1485 5 лет назад

I can identify poison ivy and try to avoid it, but it sure gets confusing when there are so many plants that look similar to it here in Indiana. Thank you for the good information!

@notallthatbad 2 года назад

I appreciate how you quizzed us. That really cements home identifying it successfully. I had to squint for a couple of them. Now for real world application. Thanks a ton!

@christyjohnson6967 5 лет назад

This is the most informative explanation I've seen! Great job, Sarah! Thanks so much for taking the time to educate us all!

@georgehakimian5949 29 дней назад

I've seen a few videos about poison Ivey but you do the best job describing what it looks like.

@heathershomestead7612 5 лет назад

Very educational! Even for someone who knows what poison ivy looks like by sight. I'm glad to know those few specifics for proper identification.

@jamee6 2 года назад

So incredibly helpful! I loved the quizzes along the way to see if we could identify poison ivy. My husband can spot it in a millisecond and I've never been able to. Thank you so much.

@RichardKennerly9452 Год назад

This is by far the best description of what poison ivy looks like and how to distinguish it from other plants - with excellent video examples and well worded descriptions. I have this bookmarked in several places so I can review it every year!

@loboalamo 5 лет назад

Well done. Very good reminder for people who spend a lot of time outdoors.

@kflan3342 5 лет назад

LOVE THIS! Plant identification is HARD and you made it much simpler!

@kathleenbaron1405 5 лет назад

Great points, Sarah! Also animals that have been outside can carry the oils on their fur. It is also a good practice to take a cool soapy shower after coming in, just in case you have come in contact with the poisonous plant. I absolutely love your content! 💕

@iartistdotme 5 лет назад

AWESOME video and quiz!!!!!!! I'm 73 and never knew but never had a problem with it. Probably will now. LOL

@changarookitty6920 5 лет назад

Good morning! Thanks I learned a lot! It was really helpful to see several comparisons !

@tomgourley305 5 лет назад

Great job of presenting basics of identifying poison ivy. Knowledge anyone living in a rural area should know. I enjoy your channel.

@drurymassey 5 лет назад

Thank you so much for the valuable information! I love that you tested us as well.

@plante_n_seeds4505 5 лет назад

My daughter will be watching this at some point because she's already gotten poison ivy! She just doesn't pay attention when they're romping through the woods. So this will be a great refresher for her :) Thanks Sarah!!

@michellekreidermorgret9387 5 лет назад

If I could give this 100 thumbs up I would! I have really needed exactly this video for ages. I have never had the rash but now I am certain I do have poison ivy in my yard. Thank you so much! You don't know what you have saved me from!!

@lincymichael619 2 месяца назад

Well done. Best description about identifying.

@kendrakirschke8968 5 лет назад

Awesome information. Thank you for sharing the look-alikes!

@LateBoomer1964 3 года назад

One of the best tutorials on Poison Ivy. Thanks I especially enjoyed the quiz after. I feel more confident about identifying it. Thanks

@dagmarking3974 5 лет назад

Thank you so much for this informative video. I didn't know that there were so many lookalikes. Once again thank you and God bless you and your family.

@brittanywhite942 5 лет назад

I love how patient you were while making this video for the ones who have trouble spotting I will probably still have trouble from lack of time outside but I will stay away from anything that looks similar now

@abbie10001 5 лет назад

Excellent video! I have never forgotten the lesson I learned at summer camp when I was a kid. “Leaves of three leave it be.” I’ve never gotten into poison ivy myself but I’ve known people who have. Ouch!

@TheFamilyFarmstead 5 лет назад

Great information! Thank you so much. Will come in handy for sure.

@alletasmith2639 5 лет назад

@ahiparagmailcom 5 лет назад

Very well presented and vital information. I have read stories with poison ivy featured in them and always imagined them to look like the ivy we have here in the UK covering our buildings and walls. How surprised was I? Very! Thnak you.

@deedeemarie5214 5 лет назад

@PaullaWells 5 лет назад

@Minnesota_Mama_Bear 5 лет назад

I've never seen it, never been you affected by it. This is the best visual I've ever seen! Thank you so so much!

@lmuledeer388 5 лет назад

Thank you Sarah for the timely update on poison ivy. I've had it years ago and it is not fun. I'm always on a look out to avoid it and visual reminders are so helpful. Remember also that you can get it from your clothes if you happen to brush against some and then touch that area with part of your skin. Thanks again 🤗

@loriregina1226 5 лет назад

I like you pointing to the plant ans asking questions.

@1rdgrnnr 5 лет назад

@sherriejohnson9250 5 лет назад

Such an informative video! I have never really learned about identifying poison ivy, and this really helped me to do so! I shared it on Facebook, hoping others will learn from it, too. Thanks so much for explaining it so thoroughly. And I liked the "tests" you gave us in helping us to identify this plant. And the info about our pets picking up and "sharing" it with us is so important.

@donnaadams8902 5 лет назад

Oh my gosh, this was the best teaching video ever regarding poison ivy identification! Thank you, Sarah!

@nw7408 5 лет назад

Good morning. Thank you so much for this informative video. I had poison ivy years ago and it was horrible! I feel confident that I'll be able to know what not to go near. God bless.

@OopzyDayzy 5 лет назад

this is really great content. i feel like the best way to learn to identify new plants is by making all the observations you showed, but you went a step farther in showing so many lookalikes and describing the nature of the plant so well. i learned a lot, i could never remember how to identify poison ivy, oak and sumac, but now i feel like i would recognize one, and thats better than none! thank you!

@annmarie3520 5 лет назад

I passed the test! And also shared with friends who just contacted poison ivy! Thanks for a great video! Going outside to check a plant I thought was poison ivy yesterday!😘👍🏻

@sarahmichaels2117 5 лет назад

Right now, my son has poison ivy. He got it between his fingers after gardening at his friends parents house. Thank you for this informative video. I am going to have him watch this.

@gunnersmate623 5 лет назад

@missmartpants2269 5 лет назад

@lynnlast9272 5 лет назад

"Leaves of three, leave them be!" That was the extent of my knowledge so was good to hear and see the rest of their description. We don't live where it grows but occasionally camp near it.

@kikiwalker7718 5 лет назад

I grew up in swamp and highly highly allergic to Poison Ivy, Poison Sumac and Poison Oak... an Emergancy Room Allergic reaction..It a misery misery to have this.. . I've learned as young child.. to recognize them... It is good to learn and know.. Thank you for teaching others.

@connielu9 5 лет назад

@fishnlady 5 лет назад

Thank you so much for this information. I grew up in areas that had poison ivy and poison oak. I never knew how to identify them. You taught me something that I always wanted to know.

Great learning lesson. I will always look more closely now

@v8v83838 5 лет назад

Thank you for sharing this information. I have always followed the rule “leaves of three, leave it be” because I’m very sensitive to poison ivy and have had the horrible rash a few times. Now I feel confident that I could identify it.

@sophiapandel9063 4 года назад

Absolutely great! Thank you! Very informative!

@rondaweber5773 5 лет назад

@marcnoonan8607 3 года назад

Amazing video. I have never seen a better-organized information video with a perfect flow of information, examples, and allowing time for someone to think for themselves true or false. You created a textbook video that works for both adults and kids. You're great! and so is your hubby. You guys complement each other so well.

Thank you for this video! I failed mostly all the leaf tests! I heard about poison ivy. Good to know and I am sure you saved lives by being informative. Where I live we only have milk weed plants that is bad. This sounds worse.

@missmamtube 5 лет назад

Shalom! Thank you Miss Sarah for the tutorial on how to identify poison ivy. This lesson was a great teachable moment for me and my middle school age child. My son feels confident that he can pretty much now identify poison ivy, around our new homestead, thanks to you. Blessings to you, Kevin and the girls!
