Sumac

Description

Poison sumac plants produce a toxic oil very similar to the poison ivy and oak plants. The oil’s toxicant is called urushiol. The transfer of this oil to the skin can occur through contact with the leaves, stems, fruit, roots or flowers of the poison sumac. Individuals can also be exposed to the urushiol oils through the burning of the poison sumac plants. Persons who suspect they have inhaled this smoke should contact a doctor immediately.
