Five decades ago I did not react to Poison Ivy at all and e.g. several times climbed up dry cliff faces through thickets of Poison Ivy, while streaming sweat, and even used these plants as climbing aids with never a hint of a blister. The change has been gradual but now I can get a reaction just from contact with boots or pant cuffs after having walked through Poison Ivy. Yt, DW, Kentville >
