PSA: Don't Get Giant Hogweed Sap on you.

These things grow to over 8 feet tall and have big leaves. You can pull them out of the ground if the ground is wet (wear gloves). Once you break it and sap flows, it will F you up if the sap gets on your skin. I learned it the hard way pulling the shit out when some renters moved out.

Next time when it starts to hurt, I'm going to try poison ivy scrub called Zanfel and see if that lessens' the effects.

Pretty sure that bitch was a teletubby before she touched the plant, lol.
