We live in northeast Wisconsin, near Oshkosh. My husband gets a terrible rash several times each summer, and we could never figure out where it was coming from. We just came in from a walk, and we think we may have found the culprit. There is a HUGE patch ( 15' x 100') of this 3 leaf plant growing along the edge of the woods, where it adjoins a field, where he often chops wood. It seems to have really increased and thrived after the larger brush was cleared
