I have plenty of poison ivy, too, but thank goodness I am not allergic to it. My neighbor spent a week in the hospital after coming in contact with wild parsnip- it has taken over our road ditches.

Oh no!! That stuff is brutal. We do have that along one of the trails we walk but there are signs so we stay on the path. I don't like it but as long as I know it's there I can be on the look out. I've seen the burns from wild parsnip and they are not not at all.
As kids we played in the meadows and vacant lots. I'd be terrified to let a kid do that these days, between the noxious weeds and ticks!
