How long can urishoil in poison ivy survive and can the uriushol survive on its own during the winter?
Urushiol, the oily resin found in poison ivy, can survive for a long time on surfaces, remaining potent for years if conditions are favorable. It typically does not survive well during winter as temperatures drop, and moisture levels change, but it can remain on dead plant material or surfaces until it decomposes. During the winter, urushiol does not actively survive or grow, as it relies on living plant tissues for production.
