Suz, as me and my little brother are very susceptible to poison ivy, and my
little bro works as a counselor at a summer camp, he's prone to it. There's a
new product out there that works wonders--it's expensive, but it works in no
time flat..it breaks the bond between the oil in the plant's secretion and the

product is zanfel (www.zanfel.com). It's available at CVS, Rite Aid, and other
places..
