Handy single use packets! Wash with Tecnu Original to remove poison ivy, oak and sumac oils that cause the rash and spreading. Simply apply Tecnu to dry skin, rub vigorously for two minutes, and rinse with water or wipe off with a cloth. Rinsing with water is best. When used within 8 hours after exposure to poison oak, ivy or sumac, Tecnu can remove urushiol oil before the rash begins. Once the rash has started, washing with Tecnu helps remove any toxic oil on the skin; allowing the natural healing process to begin without the possible spreading of poison ivy or oak (re-contamination). If hypersensitive to poison ivy or oak it is best to apply Tecnu all over the body to remove the rash-causing oil (urushiol) that causes spreading. Poison ivy and oak oil can also spread from contaminated clothing, shoes, gloves, tools and pets. Urushiol does not evaporate and can remain on items for years at a time. Use Tecnu Original to wash off the oil and avoid a poison ivy or oak rash from secondary contact. Tecnu Original is also highly effective removing skunk odor from a dog, as well as sap and pitch from skin. Tecnu Original is also misspelled as Technu and is commonly referred to as a camp soap or poison ivy wash, or poison oak wash.

Removes poison oak/ivy before it spreads
We live in the country where poison oak snd ivy grow everywhere-and my puppy likes running around in the woods- I am extremely allergic- so I broke out when she came in and I was hugging her- couldn’t figure it out at first- I wipe her off when she comes in and no more poison oak/ivy !

Works on Boots when doing trail work
I am not allergic to Poison Oak but my daughter is very allergic. She can pick up Poison Oak off her dog's fur. So I gave her half the box. I will use it to clean off boots, equipment when I work on trails. These towelettes are very good for immediate treatment when you cannot get back to a shower in time to get the oils off skin before a rash starts.

These are NOT wipes
These are NOT wipes. They are packets of cleanser. The cleanser works fine but I thought I was purchasing wipes.
