I'm pretty sure i contacted poison ivy while I was out biking/camping. At the time, since I had no idea I'd been in contact wit the plant, I wasn't really careful about touching anytihng so I'm curious how long the oil remains on things such as hiking boots and sleeping bags? If I am not planning on using my sleeping bag for a few weeks, and am keeping it in a bag the whole time do I need to worry about getting infected again next time I use the bag?
