Poison Oak the itch begins

[Steel]

Cleaning out a Oak grove to show off some of the most beautiful Oak trees on the planet. Its about 5 acres of Oak trees with poison oak growing all around the bases of them. I planted them with Fenil in order to atract game animals. Mowing 3 days ago I got slapped in the face with a branch and I had to grab several others in order to keep them from hitting me in the face.
Well low and behold tonight in the warm shower I could feel the tingling of poison oak. It feels so good to run warm water but its not recommended. Never fails that this stuff makes it to your crotch area. Working out doors and stopping to piss you do the math. By tomorrow I will be a mess. Going to get a shot if its gets any worst tonight. Worst I ever had it was caused from someone burning it and we were in the smoke. Spent a day in the hospital.

Anyone else have a poison oak story.
Cortizon shot is the only thing that saves me. By morning my skin may crawl off my body. Can you say Urgent care ?

I build Duck habitat and believe me when I say its wild out there. All kinds wild animals to run into. In the process of cleaning out some new grounds and this is the price you have to pay to get the work done. If my wife would let me me I would build in the middle of all this wildlife. Much rather deal with animals then people.
