Cause it just it.
Poison sumac can cause a severe allergic reaction in some individuals, resulting in symptoms such as rash, blisters, and difficulty breathing. While it can be very uncomfortable and potentially dangerous, it is rare for poison sumac to directly cause death in individuals who are otherwise healthy. If you come in contact with poison sumac and experience severe symptoms, seek medical attention immediately.
Yes, poison sumac can make you sick, primarily through skin contact. It contains an oil called urushiol, which can cause allergic reactions, leading to symptoms such as itching, redness, swelling, and rash. Ingesting poison sumac or inhaling smoke from burning it can result in more severe reactions, including respiratory issues or gastrointestinal distress. It's important to handle the plant with caution to avoid these adverse effects.
Toxicodendron vernix is the scientific name of 'poison sumac'. The plant contains the same urushiol oil that makes humans want to avoid contact with poison ivy [Toxicodendronradicans] and poison oak [Toxicodendrondiversilobum and Toxicodendron pubescens]. Of the three, poison sumac causes the most extreme allergic reaction in susceptible humans. In fact, many botanists describe poison sumac as the most toxic plant in the United States of America.
All three plants contain urushiol oil, which can cause an allergic reaction in many people. Poison sumac is considered the most potent of the three and can cause a more severe rash. However, the severity of the reaction can vary from person to person.
Burning poison oak (or poison ivy or poison sumac) can release the urushiol, which is the oily substance in poison oak that many (but not all) people have strong reactions to. Worse, the urushiol will be carried in the smoke from the fire, and it will get into the lungs of anyone who breathes in the smoke. If you think that having poison oak on your arms and legs is bad, just imagine having that poison oak reaction on the inside of your lungs.Bottom line: do not ever burn poison oak.
