Whenever I pulled out and cleaned up this elongated heart shaped vine recently, I got some of the sap on me. I am fairly sure that Lava soap is simply lye soap with pumice. Lye soap good! In the Ozarks, which is loaded with poison Ivy, which I am very allergic too, they, Da Hillbillies kine peoples, recommend using lye soap to wash off the poison ivy oils. Once i began itching from this vines sap, a good washing with Lava soap fixed me up, stopped itching after a while, and healed up..
Whereas last year whenever i got some, I didn't use Lava soap, the itching lasted for a week or two..
Might be to late for you at this time Noel, or not, but next time give it some Lava soap, it definitely cuts the saps oil. ..
