Abstract/Contents:Addresses the question, "What is the fate of poison ivy in a composting system?" States that "fact sheets, books, and web pages caution us not to touch poison ivy, and not to burn it, but they stop short of recommending how to dispose of poison ivy vegetation." Reports, however, that "large-scale composting could be a rational approach for disposing of poison ivy-laden yard trimmings, given the lack of good alternatives and the fact that urushiol is thought to decompose under conditions typical to composting."
