Might be old news for some but in the interest of public safety:
If you see these invasive plants showing up along the side of the roadways and you will soon if not already :/ Do not touch them.

Treat it as you would poison ivy. The juice from the stems and leaves of this plant can be extremely toxic to human skin as it exponentially increases your skins susceptibility to UV attack.

Nasty stuff. There’s a big field of this behind the DuPont Plant in a Kingston. Lots of signs everywhere but people take their dogs out there and ignore the warnings.

Same with Giant Hogweed. We had a bunch of it around St Jacobs, i think it's mostly gone now. Really nasty stuff.
