  • Poison Oak Leaves

     

    Leaves can turn yellow or red  in fall and winter, but they are just as potent.  All parts of the plant can be irritating, even you clothes might absorb the oils and cause great discomfort.  It is recommended that you do not wash your infected clothes, the oils can spread.  Best to git rid of your favorite hiking togs.
