I am glad you asked Bill...............

Nettles*

Nettles can grow just about anywhere (native to Canada and the U.S.) and produce reactions similar to that of poison ivy.

However, the long range effects of Nettles aren't nearly as pronounced as Poison Ivy, but it can cause a pretty intense short-term annoyance. Nettles have little prickly hairs that stick in your skin and sting and itch like crazy. Don't touch the exposed area. You won't have any trouble recognizing when you have just walked through Nettles. As soon as you can find water, wash the exposed area and the discomfort should vanish almost immediately.

An over abundance of Nettles in the early part of the century resulted in the deaths of many hunting dogs.

It has been suggested that cowboys walk bow-legged, not from riding horses, but from making the mistake of relieving themselves within the confines of a Nettle patch.
