The poison plant leaves, stem, and roots predominantly consist of urushiol. Rapid skin absorption occurs with urushiol contact. Inhaling urushiol particles in the air is probable during poison plant combustion. Inhalation of urushiol happens during the burning of a poison plant. This produces irritation of the nasal passages, throat, and lungs. Most regions, except for Alaska, Hawaii, and the Southwest deserts, have conditions that allow for the proliferation of poison plants. The existence of poison ivy can be categorized into two.
