Another way of getting a heavy dose of sap unwittingly is to mow PI with a power mower.Without realizing the danger, one can suffer generalized exposure via the pulverized grassdebris.  This is one of those times when a timely hot shower and lots of soap (doesn'thave to be Fels Naptha!) can save the day after the mowing is completed.  Early onthe sap is removable, but wait another day, and the die is cast.

My grandmother nearly died from inhaling the smoke from burning PI plants back in the 20th C teens.
