Another wet spring has created ideal growing conditions for poison hemlock across Ohio, including Delaware County. ๐Ÿ“ธ The background photo was taken this weekend by a community clean-up crew along SR 315.

๐Ÿšซ Poison hemlock is a highly toxic, invasive plant that poses serious risks to both people and animals. It is often identified by its tall growth, fern-like leaves, and smooth green stems with purple spotting.

โš ๏ธ Do not touch, mow, or burn this plant. Skin contact can cause irritation, and inhaling smoke from burning it can be extremely dangerous.

๐ŸŒฑ It is commonly mistaken for wild carrot (Queen Anneโ€™s lace), so careful identification is important before any removal. If found on your property, use caution and follow safe disposal practices or contact a trained professional.
