Dear Tecnu, I wanted to thank you for sponsoring the Wicked 24 adventure race as part of the 2008 gorge games. Also, I wanted to let you know that the sponsored Tecnu team were a delight to race along side of. Our paths crossed many times over the grueling 24hr race and they were always cheerful, motivated, and good ambassadors of your product. They handed out trial samples before the race that I used afterwards and I have not had any outbreak at all even though I did substantial bushwhacking and certainly was exposed.

I just mainly wanted to let you know how much I appreciate what a great product you've made.

The Tecnu outdoor skin cleanser was SUCH a lifesavor for me this past weekend. I decided to help a friend remove some panels off the side of a barn that had been falling apart. Not knowing there were large amounts of poison ivy vines that have been growing along the side of this barn over a period of time, right there I KNEW my arms and face had been exposed to the oils when I had to remove the vines from the panels. Luckily I had a bottle of the Tecnu skin cleanser in my first aid kit. As soon as I got home from doing this job, I IMMEDIATELY applied the cleanser to my hands, arms, and face and rubbed it in, then rinsed. As of now I STILL don't feel any itching.

Before I discovered your product, I use to have to resort to getting rid of poison ivy by stratching my skin until it literally was bleeding, then poured bleach on it. What a PAINFULL procedure to say the least. But now thanks to your Tecnu skin cleanser it's sooo much easier to deal with any poison ivy when ever I feel like I'm exposed to it. Keep up the GREAT work. Thanks again.

Greetings! I was just going to send a quick THANK YOU for developing the first product I have ever used that keeps poison ivy from infecting me, and am quite pleased to see I am not the only VERY HAPPY customer!! I have used products like Calamine Lotion to help me stop itching for many years, and was very interested when I spotted your product in a pharmacy (I was really kind of doubtful when I spotted it, but anything that would help me avoid the ITCH was worth the try). I bought it last summer and put it on a shelf, and I immediately forgot about it. Well, last week I walked my dog along the creek behind my house. After walking a mile from the house my dog decided to chase a squirrel, and I had to go get her when she ignored my calls. When I bent down to get her, I noticed too late that ALL of the plants I was in contact with (it was touching my legs, arms, and FACE) were poison ivy. When I got home I washed the dog, and then I took a shower. After I was done I looked in the medicine cabinet for Calamine, but I spotted your product (Tecnu Outdoor Skin Cleaner)and gave it a try. After I was finished, I rubbed some on the dog too. I followed the instructions to the letter, and one week later I can happily report that I HAVE HAD NO RASHES AT ALL! I am amazed and impressed! Thank you for a great product! I am actually going to BUY a bottle for a friend of mine - telling him about it just isn't as convincing as giving him a bottle to try.

I have used your product (Tecnu Outdoor Skin Cleanser) for about four years and have had great success with it. Ever since I was a little boy I have had poison ivy. It got so bad that when I was about 10 years old the doctor gave me shots to prevent it. The shots did not work. I suffered every single summer form severe cases of poison ivy until I found your product at CVS.

This letter is to thank you and to say that I use it every time I work in our yard and the woods. Your product works wonders!!!

P.S. I am 54 years old now!

I just wanted to tell you what a Godsend your product is! Our dog got sprayed by a skunk over a week ago and we had tried all the remedies we knew of: Dawn, peroxide, and baking soda over and over again.  Then we went online and heard about Tecnu. We purchased some and though we had to bathe her 3 times, it took the smell away.  I was beginning to think that after so long a time, we were going to have to just wait for the foul stink to wear off.  Each bathing, she was dried completely and then we did it again. Third time was charm.

Thanks from the bottom of our hearts.

I do a lot of trail clearing and poison oak removal on some trails near where I live. I always use cold water and Tecnu to clean myself and my clothes and tools as soon as a I can after working around poison oak... I think it really helps to use it as soon as possible after and type of exposure.

Just wanted to let you know that I used Tecnu on my son's FiveFinger shoes and his Teva sandals to remove the foot odor smell. Tecnu worked great on removing the smell. I put Tecnu on both by hand and let them sit for a couple of hours. We wiped them off, but did not wash them afterwards. Tecnu did a great job removing the odor!

We live in Poison Oak territory and call 6 acres of it home. It grows to over 5' in height, and is extremely invasive, taking over pasture and hillside. After nearly 10 years of battle, it's nearly under control. I've thankfully had Tecnu on my side the whole time and rarely get more than a spot of rash! Just bought a 32oz jug...

I wish I knew about Tecnu before I was actually infected... I learned about Tecnu after the skin was infected. But I believe it kept the infection from spreading further than it did. It seemed to be spreading pretty rapidly until I used the Tecnu. Now it's just in the same spots it was in before the Tecnu. It's hard to write a great testimonial when I'm still extremely itchy, but there, unfortunately, isn't much of anything you can do after you're already infected. So thanks, Tecnu, for not letting it spread to the rest of my body. I'm saving the rest of the bottle just in case I ever come in contact with the pain in the butt plant known as poison ivy.

I first stumbled across it while in Boy Scouts, little did I know at the time I would soon be working as an intern, own a landscaping business while going to college. When I get poison ivy it tends to be s huge nuisance and every since I started using tecnu it has helped!! The packets would be nice but due to the large quantity they are not feasible to keep on hand thus a bottle in the truck does wonders to help stop the spread of poison ivy before it starts. I have tried everything and this is by far the best Poison Ivy Product on the market today.

Tecnu was recommended to us by a naturalist at Jefferson Memorial Forest in Louisville KY. It really is a superb product, we keep it on hand at all times. Not only have we found it to work well with poison ivy, sumac, etc, but I found that it works really well as a SKUNK odor remover too! Both my cat and I are happy to have discovered that hidden benefit.

Just wanted to say this product is amazing! Not only does it work on poison oak but it works to remove skunk spray. My dog was sprayed by a skunk and I was at a loss on what to do. When I noticed that the extra big bottle of Tecnu on the bathroom counter had a skunk on it! Tecnu saved my life I never heard of anything that works with just 1 use. I washed my dog 1 time with Tecnu and I never smelled the skunk again. Thank you and keep up the great work, not only do you have a customer for life but I refer everyone I come across to your company! Best stuff out there by far!!!!!

I first heard about your product, Tecnu, from a power linesman, when I was a pharmacist, practicing in CT, in the late 80's. I have been using it since then and have recommended it to dozens of people. It has saved my children and me from many an encounter with Poison Ivy!!! My son and I took it on camping trips, when we lived in WV due to the overwhelming abundance of ivy, there. I now live in Florida and continue to spread the word!! I can say, without exaggeration, that Tecnu is one of the most important products for anyone who spends time in the wilderness where these plants abound!! Thank you!!!!!!!

I get poison ivy just by looking at a picture of it. I was given a free sample of Technu to try when I got my next outbreak. I was sceptical about it working at all. I was amazed the first time I used it. Follow directions and it works great. I have even given Technu to friends that had poison ivy. Thanksnfornsuch an great product.
