Climbing Poison Ivy
Sometimes it's hard to tell poison ivy from the tree
it's climbing on - it can branch out two or three feet.
When you cut down a tree for firewood you can get a good case of
poison ivy from the vine stuck to the tree - even in winter.
And they say you can get VERY bad poison ivy from the smoke from
burning wood with ivy vines on it. You get the problem in your lungs.
You don't want that.
Nasty as it is, it's nothing compared to the strangler fig vine
of the tropics, that climbs a tree and then kills it.
